Ah, soccer (or football, if you're reading this outside of the Goddamned U.S. of A.) - a true gentleman's game. Unburdened with high scores, a soccer match becomes a graceful ballet of nimble, clever individuals exerting themselves to the utmost. Unless, of course, they screw up, and then you get a hilarious fail. Check out 20 of the worst pictures to ever hit the pitch.

Let's start with an old favorite - the groin kick. In soccer, where your feet need to do all of the work and your hands must stay out of the way, it's hard to defend against a classic nutbuster. This guy's employment of the hands-free thigh lock doesn't seem too successful.

Oftentimes, players get a little caught up with emotion and express themselves in unusual ways. I'm not entirely sure what this guy's saying here, but it doesn't look comfortable.

I'm always amazed at the verticality some players get when they're going for a ball. I'm not quite sure what this enterprising ass-attacker was going for, though.

Somewhere a ball is laughing maniacally.

Actually, here's that ball I was talking about in the last picture. Just keepin' busy, owning chumps.
