Seriously. How hard can it be? How do you manage to zoom in so much that you crop out parts of the goal, THE GOAL, on a football pitch.

The 'miss of the season' will never join the likes of Ronnie Rosenthal because you can't see where the ball goes. Did it go over? Did it hit the bar? What on earth is going on?! Why do the lower leagues suffer this problem? Is it because the stands are smaller and not as high? You don't need even need to zoom in. That's why it's so frustrating(!)

Who employs the camera people? Sky? The football league? Are they professional? This has been going on for 20 years and I've finally lost it!

Comfortably mid-table
To be fair to the cameraman he was probably zooming in to capture the 'simple tap in' that would surely follow .... ;)

There may be other angles when the 360 film is put up.
