Shaqiri Forgot He Was 5 Feet 7 Inches Tall And Crash Landed Into Net After Trying To Grab Crossbar

Xherdan Shaqiri had a hilarious fail during Lyon’s Europa League clash with Sparta Prague on Thursday when he had an unexpected visit with Prague’s net.

Shaqiri was streaking in toward Prague’s goal and just missed out on a close-range opportunity.

This trick is quite popular in youth soccer despite every goal coming with a warning not to swing on the crossbar.

Defender In Romania Fails To Make Goal Line Clearance That Your 5-Year-Old Could Have Kept Out

A defender playing in the Romanian Cup had a day to forget after he pulled off one the most spectacular failed clearances the sport has seen. 

The poor defender in question is 21-year-old Marius Leca. His team, Dunarea Calarasi, was down two goals with 11 minutes left to play. The second-tier Romanian club wasn’t out of the fight just yet, but Leca pretty much sealed the win for his opponents with a brutal mistake.
