Cardiff commentator looks very silly after celebrating a missed shot like a goal (Video)

Premature exhilaration

Darragh Murphy

We’ve all been guilty of jumping to our feet in celebration, having seen the side netting ripple before sheepishly sitting down when we realise that the shot had fizzed wide.

But we didn’t have supporters hanging on our every word when we did so.

Cardiff club commentator Mark Denham was a little bit premature when he announced that Aron Gunnarsson had found the net for the Bluebirds during Saturday’s 3-2 victory over Bolton.

Gunnarsson let fly with a thunderous right-footed effort which, to be fair, looked for all the world to have rocketed into the top corner.

Denham celebrated the almost golazo before being calmed down by his co-commentator who tried to back his buddy up but it was too late.
