Not so dangerous Deivid

Anyone who’s played football has been there – the miss from two yards out, the horrendous own goal, the time when you thought you heard the referee’s whistle and let the opposition striker run past you and score the winning goal. Moments when you wish the ground would open up and swallow you. For me, these were all in the same game, which explains why I was only picked once for my school football team.

It’s this shared experience that allows you to empathise when this kind of thing -

– happens to professionals.

A shocker, but it happens to the best of us, you might think. When you find out that this isn’t Deivid’s first, or even second ridiculous miss however, you start to wonder if he really can be counted as ‘the best of us.’ Check out these 5 other incredible failures to find the net, all for the same club – Flamengo of Brazil… My favourite is the backwards diving header. Genius.
