Watch Newcastle United’s January transfer window target Siem de Jong miss an open-goal in dramatic fashion during Ajax’s away test against Brazil’s Vasco Da Gama on Sunday.

Vasco recorded a one-nil home win, thanks to a goal from wing-back Wendel in the sixteenth minute, but Ajax had their chance to equalise.

Siem de Jong fluffed his lines though and unbelievably missed what looked to be a certain goal.

Facing just an open net, the Dutch club’s captain contrives to balloon the ball over the bar to the dismay of his team-mates, the fans and the commentator.

With great commentary, watch as Newcastle target Siem de Jong misses an open-goal in the mid-season friendly:
