On Tuesday, May 20, Manchester City faced Bournemouth in the 37th round of the Premier League. Midway through the first half, an almost inexplicable moment unfolded on the pitch.

Details: Manchester City had a golden opportunity to double their lead. Omar Marmoush whipped in a low cross from the left, finding Kevin De Bruyne just a few meters away from an empty net. Yet, incredibly, the midfielder failed to convert—his shot rattled the crossbar.

Incidentally, this match against Bournemouth marks Kevin De Bruyne's final appearance at the Etihad Stadium. The fans prepared a stunning tribute to honor their long-time leader and captain.

Reminder: Earlier reports indicated that De Bruyne is in talks with other clubs. He wants to continue playing at the highest level and has not ruled out staying in England.
