SuperSport United striker Thamsanqa Gabuza's miss against Orlando Pirates stuns football world

If the earth could open up and swallow him, Thamsanqa Gabuza would gladly accept at this moment in time.

As reported by Sports Brief, the SuperSport United striker was involved in one of the all-time worst misses in the Premier Soccer League last night in a drab 0-0 draw against Orlando Pirates at Lucas Moripe Stadium in Atteridgeville last Sunday.

Late in the piece, in what was a golden opportunity for Matsatsantsa, Gabuza, a second-half substitute, fluffed his lines in front of an open net, much to the frustration of coach Gavin Hunt.

The SuperSport coach dropped to the floor, writhing around in frustration before standing and cursing in frustration.
