Opinion or Fact?

I was scrolling a video, and I came across: "Some of the worst misses in Soccer history."

By definition, a bad miss in soccer is one where you had an easy opportunity to score, and you miss.

I am wondering. Is this a "fact" or "opinion"? Every fan would consider the misses to be of the worse to be true, so would it be a fact (since it's so obvious that they are bad misses)?

I feel like these "bad misses" are subjective, which make them opinions, but facts are things that indisputably true, and I feel like they are.

You practice kicking that ball all the time. That is all you do. It is reasonable to expect you can do it well enough to make it go through a goal mouth the size of a billboard when you are standing ri
