If you’ve ever missed the ball when playing football, don’t worry, it probably wasn’t as bad as this!!

A German goalkeeper got a bit confused and thought the penalty spot was the ball!

Robin Zentner plays for the German club, FSV Mainz. He made this hilarious mistake during his side’s Bundesliga game with Borussia Monchengladbach.

The 23-year-old tried to play a pass out of his own penalty area… but he didn’t realise the ball was not actually at his feet.Unaware that the ball had passed him, he kicked thin air.
Luckily he managed to recover and no goal was scored.

The game ended in a 1-1 draw.

  1. I feel sorry for him. But really should have gone to specsavers. If he did; he would have seen the ball!
