Italian football isn't short of drama and memorable moments, and this weekend's most talked about point wasn't AC Milan's shocking loss to Lazio, but Goran Pandev's penis-shaped bald spot. Did you see it?
Genoa turned out against Udinese on Sunday afternoon for a league clash, and minutes before the half-time whistle blew, Pandev's hairless patch went viral.
Italian football has seen its fair share of bald spots on the top of players' heads, but this took the cake as it accidently forms the outline of a man's nether regions.
Genoa landed up losing 1-0, with both teams finishing the game with 10 men, but the result has somewhat been overshadowed by the former Inter Milan striker's hairline.
This isn't the first time a hairline has gone viral, with famous referee Mark Clattenburg having seemingly lost most of his hair since making the move to Saudi Arabia.

While some football icons prefer to let their hair vanish naturally, the likes of Wayne Rooney and Chelsea coach Antonio Conte have done their best to avoid disaster occurring on top of their head.
Just to confirm to all my followers I have had a hair transplant. I was going bald at 25 why not. I'm delighted with the result.

Only thing more impressive than Antonio Conte fixing Chelsea in his first season is Antonio Conte fixing his hairline. pic.twitter.com/z7GhjGIIT9

Besides death and taxes, few things in life are certain, but for footballers, it seems that hair loss is a high probability.
What is the worst hairstyle you have ever seen on a football pitch?
