The first rule of sending the ball into the box, be it from corners, free kicks or open play, is to beat the first man.
Feather-footed Lukas Podolski couldn’t even reach the first man with his atrocious attempt at a corner during tonight’s 1-0 defeat to Fiorentina.
The German, on loan from Arsenal, dinks the ball a maximum of five yards as he tried to put the ball in the mixer for Roberto Mancini’s side.
On closer inspection, it looks like Podolski kicks the corner flag before the football which makes the terrible set-piece all the more hilarious.
