🎥 Worst miss ever? Defender squanders INCREDIBLE chance in Sula | OneFootball

Argentine center-back Kevin Silva was involved in a play that has earned a spot in the gallery of the "most unbelievable missed goals in football history."

He had the chance to put Montevideo City Torque ahead of Deportivo Riestra this Wednesday (29), but wasted an incredible opportunity right in front of goal.

There was no goalkeeper. Or any other opponent to get in the way.

It was a goal they would end up missing, as the Argentine side won 2-1 in Group F of the Copa Sudamericana — Grêmio’s group. 

The team scored its first goals in international competitions. And celebrated its first win.

How did he manage that?

The play in question started from a corner kick.

Kevin Silva himself went for the header, but goalkeeper Arce got there first.

The next moment saw Rodríguez try a volley, but he didn’t connect properly.

That left the ball falling kindly for Silva: 

Uruguayan side City Torque — who began their campaign by beating Grêmio — remained on six points.

Riestra, meanwhile, moved to four. They will face the Porto Alegre Tricolor next Tuesday (5).
