WATCH: The worst kick-off routine ever? Midtjylland concede SIX seconds after restart in nightmare Europa League loss at FCSB

<p>FC Midtjylland goalkeeper Elias Rafn Olafsson&nbsp;was guilty of a dismal error as his team were beaten at Romanian side FCSB. The hosts took a 1-0 lead into half-time but doubled it within six seconds of the restart. FC Midtjylland actually kicked off the second period and played the ball straight back to Olafsson who was well outside of his penalty area. Yet Olafsson's first touch was poor and his attempted clearance was even worse, deflecting off onrushing FCSB attacker Daniel Birligea and rolling back towards goal for the striker to gently tap into an empty net.</p>

WATCH THE CLIP

<p>Midtjylland coach Thomas Thomasberg admitted it was tough to take. He told the club's website: "It was hard to concede a goal after so few seconds after the break, and it might have killed the match a bit. A disappointing feeling because we had a good opportunity to get something from here."</p>

WHAT MIDTJYLLAND SAID

<p>There's no doubt at all that it's an awful moment for Midtjylland and one that was dubbed "embarrassing" and the "worst kick-off in history" on social media. FCSB's 2-0 win put them into eighth place in the Europa League standings after four games, while Midtjylland are in 13th but just two points behind.</p><p><strong></strong></p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Midtjylland will aim to bounce back against Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt next in the Europa League, while FCSB host Olympiakos.</p>
