Will Smith is no legend when it comes to playing soccer.

The After Earth star may be known for kicking some major butt onscreen, but he proved that kicking a soccer ball offscreen is a totally different story when he attended the Champions League Festival in London over the weekend.

So what went down?

Will hit the soccer field with his son (and costar) Jaden and prepared to make a penalty kick. In a very dramatic fashion, he ran up to it, tried to kick it…and missed the ball altogether on his first attempt.

After Will's embarrassing moment had already occurred, Jaden managed to take a little bit of that attention away when he successfully made contact with the ball (he is the Karate Kid after all).

Perhaps Will can take some lessons from Jaden during the remainder of their promotional tour?
