Hatem Ben Arfa used to play for Newcastle. Newcastle didn't really want him, so he left. Now he's at Nice in France, and he's doing stuff like this to people.
Hatem Ben Arfa Almost Goal

— BreatheSport (@BreatheSport) January 4, 2016Look at that fake at the end! It was so nasty we're surprised the goalkeeper's face didn't just melt off, Indiana Jones style.
That, my friends, is the king of the almost-goals. The true almost-goal, lording over its subjects in its rightful place on the throne (the throne is made of center backs who have fallen over after clearing almost-goals off the line). The one almost-goal to rule them all.
Bow to it, all other almost-goals, for you are unworthy to even look upon its splendor. Shield your eyes, lest ye be smited by the Gods (the Gods are goals that have actually been scored).
All hail the king of the almost goals. May his reign be long and prosperous.
And Hatem Ben Arfa, maybe remember how to finish buddy. We know you can.
