Diego Forlan with perhaps the miss of the century against Juventus in a pre-season game. From the picture above you’d think Forlan is surely going to score and not hit the side netting. Thankfully a pre-season game and not a Champions League final. What’s interesting though about this miss by Forlan, and all open goal misses really, is that the best strikers in the world sometime do miss open shots. Sure, this miss is pretty incredible, but forwards miss shots they should make all the time. What they do is pick themselves up and keep playing and score the next chance they get. There would be no Diego Forlan shirt removal celebration on this one though.
