I hear it all the time in soccer, and not much gets on my nerves more.
Hit the crossbar? "Unlucky"
Ball intercepted by defender? "Inlucky"
What coach in their right mind would say this? I get it if the ball pings off a couple players and off your face for an own goal.... yeah, unlucky. But, if you miss the shot you missed. Fix it and try again, put it on frame next time. Pass find the wrong feet? You missed. Fix it and make a better touch.
For fricks sake. I cant think of a similar phrase in any other sport.

Uhh, Unlucky is used across pretty much every sport (whether the incident was actually unlucky or not)...
Pitcher deflects a ball up the middle away from his middle infield? Unlucky.
WR bobbles a pass up into the air and it's picked off (*cough* Tampa Bay *cough*)? Unlucky.

Yeah, let’s just call it what it is, “great idea but your technique is shite!”
