Jean-Claude Darcheville Does Not Seem to Grasp the Purpose of Soccer

Soccer, Lyon, Rangers

Earlier this week, Lyon traveled to Glasgow to face Rangers in a match that would determine which team would remain in this year's Champions League.

With Rangers down 1-0, Jean-Claude Darcheville had a shot on goal. From about 2 yards away. With no goalkeeper in front of him. So what does he do? He manages to hit the top of the crossbar, and the ball goes out for a free kick. But hey, at least he put himself in the back of the net.

Rangers eventually lost 3-0, and will now have to settle for playing for the UEFA Cup in the new year instead.

I saw that game...

Lyon got so close to scoring, then the ball went back all the way and darcheville had the biggest miss of all time.

Still Lyon won that game 3-0, so i guess that would have made it 3-1...

Maybe, maybe not. Rangers only needed a draw, so they would have completely changed tactics to try and keep it at 1-1, rather than having to press the rest of the match.
