Did You Watch...

The match between Manchester United and Chelsea last night? I'm not talking about my sis and her roommate but the actual clubs. Well, Man U won the game 3-1, but the game was interesting not because 4 goals were scored, but the amount that weren't instead.

One fell when wanting to score.

One slipped while taking a penalty kick.

One keeper running to the opponent's goal only to realise he was at the wrong side.

But the greatest of the miss belonged to Fernando Torres. He rounded the keeper very well and was actually one-on-one with the goal! At first sight, I thought he was going to score but he missed. I was more flabbergasted, blabbergasted, dumbfounded, smartunfounded than being happy he didn't score. Click here for the miss.

Anyway, I just pity him for the miss. He was playing well up until that point. As a striker, your job is to score. Rounding off the keeper is a bonus but the core you must fulfill. And sadly, he missed the target.

It's just like a student preparing for the exam only to realise the exam was 2 months ago and he missed it.

It's just like an accountant missing an obvious number and the accounts come up with a huge mistake.

It's just like a lawyer getting her files ready for the big trial and upon walking in the court with brimming confidence, realises she's in the wrong court and missed the right one.

How sad indeed.

Ah well, I checked the dates and phew, STPM ain't 2 months ago!
