The sight of a professional football player missing an open goal is extremely funny. Remember Torres’ miss against Man United? That was funny. Not if you’re a Chelsea fan but to everybody else it was hilarious.
That’s the thing with open goal misses, as long as it doesn’t happen to a player from your team it’s totally fine and OK to laugh about. But, if the shoes on the other foot (ha de ha), then it is pretty bloody crushing.
The joy of a guaranteed goal taken away due to incompetence of a so called professional. Tsk. Anyway, enjoy this collection of the best (or worst) open goal misses.
