![Up and over from Down Under striker Heskey - former Leicester City man's 'miss of the season']()
This is Leicestershire -- Australian commentators have dubbed Emile Heskey's latest failed attempt to score as "one of the misses of the season". The former Leicester City striker blazed the ball over the bar from 10 yards out during an A-League clash between his team Newcastle Jets and Central Coast Mariners. "Oh, he's spooned it over the crossbar," said a shocked Fox Sports commentator, during last Saturday's game. "It's one of the misses of the season.""You'd have staked your life on Emile Heskey bulging the back of the net from there." The Jets went on to lose 3-0. It leaves the veteran forward languishing in a goal drought which has now lasted some 822 minutes. Heskey signed for the Aussie club in 2012 following spells with Leicester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Wigan and Aston Villa. His International scoring record saw him score seven goals in 62 appearances for England.
