A forgotten former Chelsea winger made a shocking miss during Galatasaray's win against Bodrum
The Turkish champions maintained their five-point lead over rivals Fenerbahce at the top of the table with a 1-0 win on Saturday.
Former Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi proved to be the difference against the relegation-threatened hosts in the 54th minute.
However, it is another ex-Blues star who will attract attention for the wrong reason after his incredible miss from close range.
Galatasaray had the chance to double their lead when Victor Osimhen ran through on goal before laying the ball off to Hakim Ziyech.
From just a few yards out and with the goalkeeper out of position, the Moroccan winger failed to score, instead keeping the ball in the air.
Ziyech immediately looked at the ground in disappointment before nodding to Osimhen, who had scored the chance.
Fans were left stunned on social media, with one posting: 'My late grandmother will score this goal with ease'.
Another said: 'Always end with the foot opposite to where the ball came from if you can… ending on 101…basic'.
'This is a crazy mistake. You could just type in,” a third wrote.
The former Ajax winger has had a frustrating season so far, having started just one league match due to a muscle tear.
He has made eight appearances in all competitions this season, registering one goal and one assist in that time.
Ziyech came to Galatasaray permanently last summer, after being loaned out last season.
He scored 14 goals in 107 Chelsea appearances but fell out of favor under Graham Potter and saw a move to PSG collapse on deadline day in January 2023, despite his trip to the French capital.
