‘My mind is blown’ – Identical Bournemouth misses from different games have fans convinced ‘we live in the Truman Show’
FANS have been left convinced they are living in a simulation after seeing Bournemouth produce identical misses. The Cherries fell to a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool on Saturday, courtesy of a Mohamed Salah brace. https://twitter.com/Rory_Talks_Ball/status/1885814748358267034 Sky SportsMarcus Tavernier curled a shot that hit the post against Liverpool[/caption] Sky SportsAnd Justin Kluivert’s miss echoed an identical chance earlier this season[/caption] Sky SportsBack in November an identical shot happened against Man City[/caption] Sky SportsThat day Adam Smith missed an identical chance[/caption] However, Andoni Iraola’s side were left to rue controversial refereeing and a number of missed chances at the Vitality Stadium. One of these chances saw Marcus Tavernier curl a shot onto the inside of the post from outside the box. The ball then cannoned back out to the right side of the penalty area where Justin Kluivert had made an overlapping run. The in-form star had the perfect chance to score, but mistimed his shot and sliced the effort wide. But eagle-eyed fans spotted an uncanny resemblance to another missed chance which played out in almost exactly the same way. During a match against Manchester City at home earlier this season, Tavernier received the ball on the edge of the area before curling a shot onto the inside of the post from outside the box. The ball then cannoned back out to the right side of the penalty area where Adam Smith had made an overlapping run. But the defender fluffed his effort and sent the ball well over the bar.

Reacting to the videos, one fan said: “We live in a sim.” A second said: “Wow, exact same buildup, too. Straight from the training ground. That’s what coaching does, I guess.” A third added: “Ain’t no way… it’s the exact same sequence and outcome.” Another said: “I am mind blown.” A fifth said: “We are living in a matrix.” A sixth said: “Actors. We all live in a Truman show world.” The main difference from the two games, was the outcome of the game. Whereas Bournemouth lost against Liverpool yesterday, they managed to beat Man City 2-1 during the November clash. Bournemouth’s defeat to Arne Slot‘s league leaders was their first defeat in 12 matches since November. The impressive run has propelled them up to seventh in the division and just one point outside the Champions League qualification places.
