I figure that's the reason. I guess my thought is that it's easy to explain, and the the British announcers give us enough jargon and colloquialisms that one more wouldn't matter.

Yukubu for Nigeria just missed an open goal from 3 yards out from the middle of the net. A brutal miss. Still down 2-1.
