Missed goal no.5 of this compilation is just impressive... it's like the team really really really didn't xwant to score (its at the 1:18 mark)

Was that in the Southampton v Norwich 5-4 that was the highest scoring Premiership game for a while? Have vague memories that they didn't just show the 9 goals on MOTD.

^Best moment of the World Cup, and I like how when you type in his name in YouTube the first suggestions are all for this.

This thread will prove a useful repository for "uh, no, what about THIS" whenever anyone brings this one up:

pay no heed to this 'acoleuthic' fellow, that can never be shown too many times imo

― Ismael Klata, Saturday, 20 November 2010 17:20 (fifteen years ago)

Haha, love the guy that plays the through pass tripping the keeper with his hands.

Apparently there was a St Johnstone miss vs Aberdeen in the first half yesterday that belongs on here, haven't seen it yet.

Aldo, if it's the one about 45 seconds in, it's really not that bad:

Yeah, I watched the highlights looking for it and people who write text updates are fucking liars. Laughed at the Kenny Misser throw-in debacle though.

― ia! ia! Cartman fthagn! (aldo), Monday, 22 November 2010 07:56 (fifteen years ago)

Yeah, that same situation was a "You are the ref" in the grauniad a while back. Can't believe Kenny Miller doesn't read the guardian! I just wished he'd picked it up for a deliberate handball.

― ailsa, Monday, 22 November 2010 08:36 (fifteen years ago)

just seen an absolute shocker in aussie football highlights. would have been a beaut goal too. brisbane vs something fury.

whoa

Sivonjic one is truly unbeatable I think, as in there's no mathematical way you could construct a worse miss (short of raising the stakes by putting it in a world cup final or something) - the ball is *going in*, six inches from the goal, and he kicks it in the wrong direction by 180 degrees - there's just no room for improvement there.

Qatar one is great too, if only 'cos it compiles a horrible, horrible flub (the keeper's) with a far worse one inside on 10 seconds.

Don't know what to say about this one, it is just completely wtf
