WATCH: Edinson Cavani produces comically abysmal candidate for miss of the century

Impressive

This fluffed chance is so comical that Seth Rogan should genuinely consider casting it in his next movie.

PSG striker Edinson Cavani had a golden opportunity to add to his tally for the season against Guingamp, but failed miserably at taking it on almost every level.

Clean through on goal and with just the keeper to beat, Cavani uncharacteristically miscued his shot into his hoop, fell over, then sliced the ball out for a goal kick while on his back.

It was such an unbelievably poor miss that Marco Veratti actually looked befuddled as he chased after the bobbling ball from the Uruguayan’s pathetic effort.

Ultimately, the miss meant little as PSG hockeyed Guingamp 3-0 to extend their lead atop the Ligue 1 table.
