Watch: Gamba Osaka almost concede crazy own goal – seconds later score a truly wonderful counter attacking goal

Gamba Osaka made their way into the J-League grand final at the expense of Urawa Reds after a thrilling 3-1 win.

Shaking the embarrassment off, Osaka quickly gathered themselves up and delivered a truly stunning counter attacking goal just seconds later.
