Patrick Wood's miss/from Twitter
The start of Patrick Wood's career boded well.
The 21-year-old Sydney FC striker has so far made seven appearances for the Australian under-23 team, but unfortunately, he gained international attention precisely because of a miss, and not just a miss - one of the biggest misses seen in the industry in recent years.
It happened in the 29th minute, when his team was safely leading 0:3 over the Central Coast Mariners: a big mistake by the rival goalkeeper Danny Vukovic left Wood completely alone in front of an open net, at a distance from which it is impossible to miss, but that is exactly what the 21-year-old striker managed to do
see and not believe:
The network claims that this is "one of the biggest misses of the century", and "one of the worst misses ever" - and we have no choice but to agree.
Wood has scored one league goal in 548 minutes this season, his team is ranked sixth after 16 rounds with 23 points - ten less than leaders Wellington.
