A forgotten former Chelsea winger produced 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's 54th-minute header proved to be the difference against the relegation-threatened hosts.
However, another ex-Blues star will grab attention for the wrong reasons after his incredible miss from close range.
Galatasaray had the opportunity to double their lead when Victor Osimhen ran through on goal before laying it to Hakim Ziyech.
From just a few yards out and with the goalkeeper out of position, the Moroccan winger failed to score, instead skying the ball.
Ziyech looked to the ground in disappointment before nodding at Osimhen, who had set up the chance.
Fans were baffled on social media, with one posting: 'My late grandma will score this goal with ease'.
Another said: 'Always finish with the foot opposite of where the ball came from if you can.... finishing 101...basics'.
'This is a crazy miss. You could just tap-in', a third wrote.
The former Ajax winger has endured a frustrating campaign so far, starting just one league match due to a muscle tear.
He has played eight times in all competitions this season, registering one goal and one assist.
Ziyech joined Galatasaray on a permanent deal last summer following a loan spell last season.
He scored 14 goals in 107 Chelsea appearances but fell out of favor under Graham Potter. Despite his trip to the French capital, a loan move to PSG collapsed on deadline day in January 2023.
