Dimmu Posted Saturday at 22:23 Share Posted Saturday at 22:23 Not even in the top hundred open goal misses. In this video, there are some of them, and quite a few are from the players of the highest standard. cstand, Crewton, Mckram and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Harry Maguire one where he’s a yard out for example! Dimmu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BramcoteRam84 Posted Saturday at 22:45 Share Posted Saturday at 22:45 (edited) Worst miss I’ve seen live from a Derby player…….wasn’t this one. Wanchope - Last home game of the season against Cov, going to say 98/99, we might have even had an outside chance of European football, last attack to win it open goal from 2 yards out complete air shot then he gets in the way of Carbonari following up.

No wonder he didn't have the strength at the end to get it on target. The guy is amazing. I think people should talk less about "miss of the season" and just look at what he did to get there in the first place. jono, DiggerB, Rev and 11 others 7 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even close is it? 😂 And none of them had sprinted 80 yards in the 97th and won a header with the keeper. r_wilcockson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant to make the chance, but not taking it will haunt him for a long time. Crewton and Comrade 86 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram1988 Posted Sunday at 01:12 Share Posted Sunday at 01:12 Only Ebou would get himself in that position through pressing and hard work. Ebou is immense and fundamental to our midfield !

His error had literally, zero material effect on the game, or the result, unlike the all-action 90 minutes he put in prior to it. Pretty sure he'll be sleeping easy enough tonight and so he should be. DE56Ram, Kathcairns, r_wilcockson and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester40 Posted Sunday at 07:02 Share Posted Sunday at 07:02 During the game I was following the ball and just thought how brave his header was, then the replays showed his clumsy left foot weird 'flick'. However, rewatching this morning nursing a celebratory hangover....I can't quite fathom the energy and pace he shows to get there in the first place. Its unbelievably determined, fast, strong....in the 97th minute??? We won anyway, he's a legend already and he made that goal 100% himself out of absolutely nothing.

I really feel for the guy. Would certainly be gutted for him if it had mattered! What a show of strength, determination, and pure selfless endeavour to have even put himself in that position. As I was absent due to driving back from EuroTunnel, I sincerely hope (and trust) he had his own personal standing ovation after that. What. A.

I was thinking exactly the same miss. If my memory serves me correctly he was just off the goal line, he swung his foot and somehow the ball went between his legs. If he hadn't even swung his foot and let it bounce off his shin it would have been a goal. BramcoteRam84 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
On the Ram Page Posted Sunday at 08:00 Share Posted Sunday at 08:00 Maybe if people had reacted to the CBT miss last year in the same way, he may be more confident now. I know he doesn’t contribute in the same way as Adam’s does, but let’s get behind ALL our players when mistakes are made. jono and Pikeyram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want to get too cheesy but he seemed moved by it as he passed where I was standing. I can’t remember a Derby player who has made such a connection with the fans so deeply and so rapidly. r_wilcockson and Mucker1884 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTedd Posted Sunday at 10:04 Share Posted Sunday at 10:04 16 hours ago, Rev said: This is spot on. He'd sprinted from penalty spot to penalty spot, winning a 50/50 header on the way, through sheer bloody mindedness in the 97th minute when he was clearly knackered well before. I look at it as a great piece of pressure release play, rather than the worse miss I've ever seen. He was clearly doing the sensible thing and aiming for the corner flag. It’s a bit of a disgrace that it was nearly a goal. He missed the corner flag by miles. Rev and r_wilcockson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback Posted Sunday at 10:23 Share Posted Sunday at 10:23 this was not the big howler in the game Cashins back pass that beat Jacob and narrowly missed the net for an OG, that was a howler and could potentially have been a game changer. Ebou should have scored but didnt meh! not a biggie PS I will allow Cash made a superb sliding block to stop their CF shot👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted Sunday at 10:42 Share Posted Sunday at 10:42 (edited) It's nowhere near the top of the list of open goal misses if there is such a thing. Remember watching the game on TV West Brom vs Boro Kanu is literally standing 2 yards out from an open goal. And contrives to kick it over the bar The ball wasn't even travelling that quickly I've never seen Bryan Robson so angry Edited Sunday at 10:56 by Tyler Durden r_wilcockson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted Sunday at 10:49 Share Posted Sunday at 10:49 I seem to remember a poster declaring vyrda shooting at the keeper as the worst miss of all time. Although that poster was a bit of a melon if I recall. Millenniumram and Crewton 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
