I don't remember what soccer tournament it was but we were in the finals against the same team we always faced and always lost too. It was tied 1-1 with like 5mins left. We won a corner and I was sitting on the edge of the box far post, just in case it popped out. Well the corner gets sent in and it was near post. Goalie and everyone attack it. Goalie just gets his hand on it pushing it over everyone's head but sends its straight to me. Goalie is on the ground and everyone is bunched up near post. I'm the only one far post and the goal is wide open. The ball starts rolling to me in slow motion. I start thinking omg when I score this we will win. We will finally beat them and win this cup. And I'll be the one that did it!

I start to position myself, take a step a and rip the shot. COMPLETLEY WHIFFED. I didn't just miss the wide open goal. I missed the ball! I was able to get the ball back but not my dignity. At the end of regulation, few minutes later, I got subbed. Coach brought fresh legs to take my spot in ET and I didn't play for the rest of the game. Pretty sure we ended up losing too. I don't remember much after that miss except for replaying it in my mind a billion times
