Gender reveal fails are some of the greatest videos to grace the internet so long as they’re not burning down half of California. The best ones always involve sports whether it’s someone trying to shoot a basketball or hit a baseball. A recent video of a couple hosting a gender reveal party is the first soccer gender reveal fail that I’ve seen.

It would've been an incredible story by itself: The Comoro Islands, ranked 132nd in the world and with a population under 900,000, making its first-ever Africa Cup of Nations appearance and advancing to the last 16 to play the host and five-time champion Cameroon, but the stage at Paul Biya Stadium in Olembé became a global spectacle Monday when it was confirmed that Comoros' backup left-back, Chaker Alhadhur, would play as a makeshift goalkeeper because of injuries and C
