Watch Shane Long's remarkable miss against Bournemouth

Just days after scoring the fastest-ever Premier League goal, Shane Long produced a contender for miss of the season in Southampton's thrilling 3-3 draw against Bournemouth.

Long had put Saints ahead at St Mary's with his fourth goal in his last five games.

However, presented with a chance to make it 2-1 in the 24th minute, Long hit the post from eight yards out with the goal gaping after goalkeeper Artur Boruc had saved his initial shot.

The miss didn't prove significant as Southampton secured their Premier League survival with a draw, but it will be a chance that Long doesn't want to see again.
