I don’t have a rooting interest in Serbia vs. Switzerland. I really don’t care who wins. But I wanted this goal to go in SO BADLY. Forget best goal of the 2018 World Cup, this might have been one of the best goals of my lifetime if it went in. Xherdan Shaqiri is a legend for this and he didn’t even score.
Xherdan Shaqiri’s narrow miss was better than any actual goal at the World Cup
Please appreciate this effort.

I feel like I’m going to remember this shot for the rest of my life. The time I almost saw one of the best goals in the history of soccer, and it missed by about six inches. I can’t believe he tried this. I can’t believe it came so close.
Is this real? How is it real? I’ve watched it five times. I feel like I’m seeing things. I’m lightheaded.
Four years from now, if you ask me the final score of Serbia vs. Switzerland from the 2018 World Cup, I will not know the answer. But I will be able to tell you about this shot.
Update: Switzerland won because Shaqiri did this!
