Again Mare missed 2 but they were not short just wide right which is in his mechanics and can be corrected.

First one maybe mechanics... it took a noticiable hook as it got near the goal. I don't think his foot hit it wear he needed to.

Second the ball went to the same spot and it was going to miss from the get go. You got to make those. Your team recovers after you missed it to march right back down into the dragons teeth to give you another shot and you missed that won as well. Kicking there is no denying its also a mental game but he FAILED. Luckly the grounds crew did a great job keeping the sidelines clean because if there was a rock Mare would have found it and crawled under it.

Both kicks where not just missed they were MISSED.
