On Saturday in a Serie B soccer match from Italy between Pescara and Gubbio, Pescara's Lorenzo Insigne may have delivered not only the worst missed goal in recent memory, but a miss that is so impossible to imagine that it has to be seen to be believed.
Insigne received a perfect pass from a Pescara teammate directly in front of the Gubbio goal line with the goalkeeper out of position. All Insigne had to do was tap in the ball from less than two feet away, but somehow he kicked the ball straight up in the air and over the net.
To the 20-year-old's credit, Insigne did score a goal later in the match to help Pescara to a 2-0 victory, so that should make it easier for Insigne to forget about this disastrous miss.
H/T 101 Great Goals.
