Seeing Dunk's World Cup Qualifier thread made me think about the best moments in sport. My favourites are the complete prize fuck up.
The best I saw live was at a Southampton v Everton match years ago, when a hopeless forward was brought on by Everton with them 4-2 up. The dork decided to help out in defense when Southampton had a corner. He sent a bullet header into his own net from the corner of the penalty area. Grown men were crying with laughter and derision. Never have I seen such joy at a match.
That's why the English and the Scots really want each other to qualify for the 2010 SA World Cup, because the Scots know England will just be useless and go out in a painful penalty shoot out. The Scots will be beaten by someone called Wiziwaggistan with a population of 50, miss a few sitters and the keeper will throw a couple in his own net.
We can all drool over the magnificent achievement but the utter balls up is the best!!!
