Forget what you remember of Zinedine Zidane's playing career.
Sure, he might well have inspired his country to World Cup victory, bagged one of the most memorable Champions League final goals of all time and widely been regarded as one of the finest footballers to have ever played the game, but in actual fact, he was just shit.
How do we know this? Well, from a three-second video posted on Twitter, that's how.
Shared by Michael Cox, it shows Zidane - or perhaps just some bloke who looks incredibly like him -preparing to take a corner during his time with Juventus. Allowing himself little in the way of a run up, the former French international is clearly eyeing playing the ball short to one of his teammates.
Seemingly changing his mind about the initial pass, Zizou's attempt to play the ball along the line then goes disastrously wrong. The pass is scuffed, and bobbles pathetically out of play for a goal kick.
Have a look. It truly is tragic.

Fortunately, one poorly-taken corner wasn't enough to deter Real Madrid from making him the most expensive football player in history when they signed him from Juve in 2001.
