You attempted a LIGHTNING KICK.
You should know that because this move is performed by pressing a kick button repeatedly, it is necessary to perform a few kicks before the move starts: either 3*SHORT, 3*FORWARD, or 2*ROUNDHOUSE if you none of them hit your opponent; 2*SHORT, 2*FORWARD, or 1*ROUNDHOUSE if one kick hits the opponent. Further presses keep the LIGHTNING KICK activated.
Because >>6906 did not specify which button to use, I chose to use SHORT, and before inputting it, enabled an autofire mechanism at a rate of 10 presses per second, to ensure optimal execution.
The mandatory SHORT KICK hit Guile, causing damage. However, it also pushed him back out of range of the LIGHTNING KICK.
Because we are nearing the end of the round, I need to take the time to carefully plan my next move. As soon as I decide of my move, I will tell you of if, show you its effects, and let you take your turn.
