Premier League: Super Eagles legends Okocha, Kanu and Mikel Obi make greatest Africa XI list
Jay Jay Okocha, Kanu Nwankwo, and Jon Obi Mikel were among the Premier League legends and stars celebrated at the league's 30th anniversary by SuperSport.
Unbelievable open-goal blunders and shocking moments of panic from players who would otherwise be revered by fans just go to show that they are indeed humans, with blood flowing through their veins.
Some of the more famous names in the top 10 include Manchester City’s Sergio Aguero, who, despite scoring 184 times for the Cityzens, was victim to a moment of madness against Chelsea, as well as Nigerian sensation Kanu Nwankwo and future Ballon d’Or winner Luka Modric.
Biggest misses in the Premier League
The most famous miss in the compilation is perhaps Fernando Torres’ open-goal miss against Manchester United in the early days of his Chelsea career, which has been immortalised in meme culture.
The compilation also features Kanu, during his spell at West Brom, failing to find the back of the net, despite standing less than two feet away from the goal line, as well as an equally poor miss from Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling.
