A forgotten former Chelsea winger produced a shocking miss during Galatasaray’s win against Bodrum
The Turkish champions maintained their five-point lead over rivals Fenerbahce at the top of the table with a 1-0 win on saturday.
Former Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi 54th minute header proved to be the difference against the relegation-threatened hosts.
However, it’s another ex-Blues star who will grab attention for the wrong reason after his incredible miss from close-range.
Galatasaray had the opportunity to double their lead when Victor Osimhen ran through on goal before laying it to Hakim Ziyech.
From just a few yards out and with the goalkeeper out of position, the Moroccan winger failed to score, instead skying the ball.
Ziyech immediately looked to the ground in disappointment before nodding at Osimhen, who had set ip the chance.
Fans were left baffledon social media, with one posting: ‘My late grandma will score this goal with ease’.
Another said: ‘Always finish with the foot opposite of where the ball came from if you can…. finishing 101…basics’.
‘This is a crazy miss. You could just tap-in’, a third wrote.
The former Ajax winger has endured a frustrating campaign so far having started just one league match due to a muscle tear.
He has played eight times across all competitions this season, registering one goal and one assist in that time.
Ziyech joined Galatasaray on a permanent deal last summer following a loan spell last season.
He scored 14 goals in 107 Chelsea appearances, but fell out of favour under Graham Potter, and saw a loan move to PSG collapse on deadline day in January 2023 despite his trip to the French capital.
