Erling Haaland is a goalscoring machine; as close to a perfect striker as it's possible to get. In 84 appearances for Manchester City, he's found the back of the net an astonishing 80 times. But even an expert finisher like Haaland can still spectacularly miss the target.
The weekend's Manchester derby was a perfect case in point. With the reigning champions trailing their local rivals after Marcus Rashford's brilliant opener, Haaland had a glorious opportunity to equalise. Phil Foden's header back across goal just needed a simple touch to cushion the ball over the line from close range but the Norwegian couldn't oblige. His effort flew over the bar to sounds of disbelief.
