17) Rui Miguel
If Rui Miguel had just allowed the ball to hit him it probably would have gone in.
He swung a foot at it though, and knocked it over the bar from inches.
16) Yakubu
On the biggest footballing stage of them all, Yakubu managed this miss during the 2010 World Cup.
The Nigerian could have practically directed it anywhere and scored, but he managed to pick a spot just wide of the post.
