This Is The Worst Missed Net In The History Of Sports, But You Have To Appreciate The Intention

This is it. This effort from Serbia's fourth tier is officially the worst miss of all time. Note his teammate's pure disbelief at the end. pic.twitter.com/dNW9Jn2Ema

This kid's shot may have been a disgrace to the sport of futbol. Trying to rocket an absolute gimme in off the bottom of the crossbar was - without question - an utterly selfish, completely unnecessary move that cost his team a goal in a game that was almost certainly tied 0-0 (what soccer game isn't). I'll tell you what though, I'm willing to give this moron a little bit of credit for risking public shame in an attempt to stand out from the crowd. He surely deserves to be kicked off the squad, but don't say he didn't do his damnedest to move up the ranks. Tap the ball into the empty net after having it gifted to you by an egregious turnover and people are more likely to mock your opponent than they are to praise you. Snipe top corner from an absolutely ludicrous angle after chipping it through the keeper's wickets and maybe people start to take notice of #15. They all look the same on the scoresheet, but Serbia's 3rd Tier scouts aren't calling up 4th Tier talent based on a box score. That's probably because the person keeping track of D-League stats in someone's war-torn backyard is likely asleep at the wheel, but it's also because they want to actually see someone do something mildly impressive before giving them a call up to the C-League.
