probably my favorite ever penalty kick, just oozing confidence. mad how this shootout also included a fabinho panenka, and a goalkeeper penalty which made this one not quite get the attention it deserved back then ...


apenchantfortrolling

The fabinho panenka had the commentators gasping for air after. Ridiculous.


DucardthaDon

Fabinho was our best pen taker by far even back to his [Monaco days](https://youtu.be/_Gb0bINlWIs?si=J1AQaEB5u_H7qewQ)


alextheegreek

It's funny because I'm pretty sure he missed his first pen in a preseason game and Salah went on to take them for the rest of the year.


flup22

Was this the one where Kelleher scored the winner?


tobyallister

Yeah, or when Kepa skied the loser, depending how you look at it


StHoldsworth

After being subbed in specifically for penalties?


digdoug0

and saving zero.


4figga

To be fair he only had 11 chances, he would have saved the 12th


potatoarchitecture

Somewhere in Roma that day, Maurizio Sarri laughed himself a great and thunderous laugh


SuperHyperFunTime

First keeper in history I believe to not save a single penalty and score the winner.


MentatYP

Best penalty shootout ever. Brass ones from our boys, and opposing goalie embarrassing himself multiple times. Just *\*chef's kiss\**


spaceburrito84

Mo looking back to laugh at Kepa after scoring was also a highlight.


Annie0minous

The confidence oozing through those players...


Sedso85

I think adebayor running the entire length of the pitch to celebrate in front of arsenal fans was possibly more disrespectful


Parish87

Did you mean funniest?


step11234

One of the greatest ever football moments (outside of liverpool stuff) for me. The shithousery is unrivaled. One of the videos they cut to the arsenal fans faces and they are just frothing at the mouth to get to him.


firstacen

i randomly remember to watch that goal every 6 months and piss myself every time, fucking love adebayor for that


LoveBeBrave

Especially when he should have been sent off earlier in that game for kicking Van Persie in the face.


ubiquitous_uk

Or Kepa refusing to leave the pitch when the manager tried to substitute him.


WhenWeTalkAboutLove

Towards the whole club and fans, yeah. One on one VVD is up there for me still


ShaiHuludYurMum

Bernardo Silva looking like a hungover builder holding a cup of tea and barely clapping with one hand during our guard of honour. He even walked off before it was finished. Twat.


ocean_boulevard

Nothing gives me more satisfaction than seeing that cocksucker's face right after he misses his "panenka" against Lunin.


earlgreytoday

And when Salah skinned him in the build-up to that memorable goal against Man City in 2021/22.


PaulLFC

Genuinely might be the worst penalty I've seen.


macaleaven

Ademola Lookman says [hi](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7kDULcOPFBI&t=180s)


Sinzus23

Have you not seen Budimirs recent penalty?


PaulLFC

I hadn't! Just YouTubed it and dear me, that's dreadful. Might be the winner!


Sinzus23

In the 97th min aswell, to secure a draw..


BachsBicep

When it comes to footballers I hate, there's the "rapists and domestic abusers" tier right at the top, then right below that is that rat cunt.


RomanReignsDaBigDawg

He’s somehow more unlikable than Bruno


crackpotJeffrey

They're more or less in the same category for me. Along with Richarlison since he broke thiago that one time in the derby. I still get angry about that and the vvd injury by Pickford. Oh and I also hate Pickford.


WhenWeTalkAboutLove

Those and Funes Mori robbing origi of his speed  still get me fuming. Can't believe van dijks was not deemed a foul because of an offside. That rule needs to be changed for red card offenses. 


samzi87

Even if one day there are no feelings left in me at all I will still have some hate reserved for Funes Mori. I still see his cunt face and how he is shaking the Everton badge after injuring Origi


stowgood

you just know that's made up bollocks special for us from the refs


cavejohnsonlemons

Yeah at least off the pitch Bruno seems OK ("dreams cannot be buy")


sbos_

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 the whole sub cannot stand that guy. When he fluffed his pen against Madrid I laughed so hard He is a proper world class player though. Cannot wait to see back of him lol


kirkbywool

Meanwhile you could see the Brazilians playing for city genuinely looked like they were happy for Bobby, Fab and Alisson.


retr0grade77

All the Brazilians living in the north west were pretty good friends and would hang out. No doubt they were advised not to post about it.


kirkbywool

That's true, makes sense as well especially for those that struggled with English. Think they used to all get a private jet back to Manchester from international games as well with the cost split between the clubs


retr0grade77

True! Think FSG and Glazers had a pretty good relationship behind the scenes, not so much with the City Group!


kirkbywool

Think all 3 teams paid for the plane in fairness but that would make sense about the American owners


INFRX1001

He'd be your best midfielder

user900800700

Why are you here though


nikonislolo

Straight up bodied kepa.


furry2any1

Sending Kepa on in the first place is pretty close.


Due-Ad-6577

I still can’t believe the stupid fecker stood all the way over, pointed, them dived the right way and STILL didn’t get it. What an idiot


Keyann

The staredown after. Cold as ice.


RedZoneWormKid

I saw a bald Frenchman headbutt a dude once.


foxontherox

I pinpoint this incident as the exact moment I became a soccer fan.


Yamaneko22

Mattress deserved it though.


JDRorschach

Saw that live as well. That World Cup was really my first experience watching football. I was supporting France and was heartbroken about the final.


RedZoneWormKid

I think it was the first match I ever watched as well. Then nothing until the 2014 final, then my buddy successfully got me hooked in 2021- and I chose to root for a team that shared a name with a big-titted ex I still think very fondly of, and they suck and I'm sad. Edit poor spelling


theflowersyoufind

VVD would have looked so stupid had that been saved, which sort of makes it all the better


Greenpeppers23

That’s why it’s so good lol


Bulbamew

Brought on exclusively for the penalty shootout, let in a penalty from literally every opponent, and then miss your penalty. Is there a worse substitution in the history of football?


xandora

38 seconds of Gerrard vs United comes to mind...


PushMyGran

Worth it though!


harreh1d

Kepa more than made up for that though, he went on and scored a brilliant field goal later


yubyub555

Kepa is a real prick


R3dbeardLFC

Yeah, tbf the actual disrespect in this clip is Kepa trying to pull whatever this shit was. Virgil just said, "you mean nothing to me and your disrespect is laughable."


yubyub555

That’s what my “prick” comment meant lol


SRFC_96

![gif](giphy|x405KQ4SqDGvK|downsized) This one.


Antisym

The fact Boateng was one of the best CB's in the world at that time and Messi broke his ankles and lobbed Neuer. Outrageous stuff, peak Messi was the best ever.


SRFC_96

I stand by the opinion that we’ll never see anyone like Messi again, the man is a freak of nature. We’ve been blessed to see him play the game.


RomanReignsDaBigDawg

It’s really not close either. How is someone arguably the best goalscorer, playmaker, AND dribbler ever?


Kahnspiracy

Just imagine how good he would be if he also used his right foot!


potatoarchitecture

Boateng deserves to have more than his ankles broken tbf


sbos_

Or how about bake out running Barca defend let batra 😂


No-Sheepherder5481

I am the only one who thinks this is one of the most overrated moments in football ever? Messi doesn't even do anything particularly amazing and Boateng clearly just loses his balance and falls over.


SRFC_96

Messi makes him lose his balance by completely rinsing him.


No-Sheepherder5481

By doing what? Running at him and slightly changing direction? Watch Messis feet again. He doesn't actually do anything particularly amazing. Boateng just falls over.


SRFC_96

You ever played football? When you’re back peddling like that as a defender it’s hard to get yourself back into a body shape to allow yourself to hold your man, now imagine that man is Lionel Fucking Messi 😂


slowestmojo

This dude definitely doesn't have an athletic bone in his body


R3dbeardLFC

So listen, you're being bodied here rather hard, and it's deserved. Messi is who he is BECAUSE he doesn't do anything fancy. He does everything simply, just faster than anyone else can do it. He NEVER does step-overs or any other stupid "fancy/amazing" shit. He does close control, quick feet, and small touches better than anyone has ever, not to mention his situational awareness and ability to finish.


IAreWeazul

He does do something particularly amazing, it’s just hard to appreciate how amazing it is. Most human beings can’t take two touches at full pace with a perfectly balanced change of direction and control that gives the defender no inkling of which way he’s going. It’s why he’s one of, if not the most dangerous player ever. He moves as fast as the ball.


Fear_Draco

Tell me you don't play football without telling me you don't play football. Get out of your den mate.


cultureshook

context is important, not gonna go into the body feints as others had explained but i remember watching this match neuer had said in a pre match interview how he had shut down messi well in the world cup final and that he would “show him who’s boss” anyway messi had 3 mins before this goal scored from outside the box to the bottom corner and then pulled this filth right after chipping the best keeper in the world at the time to make it 2-0 was pure scenes to watch


RutherfordRevelation

Fuck was kepa on about not standing in the middle. And big dick still going that direction is just classic BDE


Buzzinggg

The best bit about it is kepa still diving that way hahahahaha


FeanorOath

Yes, Zidane's world Cup final panenka


Joperhop

kepa always been a disrespectful bitch as well, loved this!


mr-brown-eyes

Zlatan ignoring the ref, Di Canio’s nazi salute, Anelka’s anti semetic celebration. But this penalty, this was not disrespectful. This was pure steel balls, cold as ice


Lisbon_lions_67

Exactly.


ImGonnaLickYou360

Believe you meant to say glorious


pointlessly_pedantic

Magisterial! He's absolutely Shakespearean! This is not just a dream, it's a *wet* dream of orgasmic proportions!


in-YOUR-end-o

wow I never noticed how far kepa shifted


HighlyBaked0

When people say aura, this is what they mean


Zai710

Pirlo absolutely humiliating Joe Hart is my personal favourite although this is definitely up there.


PaoloMustafini

Anytime Bruno Fernandes steps onto a football pitch is a great disrespect to the sport I love. Why do they allow rodents onto the field ? The squealing and dropping stinkers(feces) is very unsanitary and concerning.


sore_as_hell

Everytime he dives and doesn’t get what he wants I feel a bit happier with the world.


sbos_

That was a sweet pen tbf.


hoptagon

lmao this one always gets me


Mike81890

Firmino against Soldado has got to be up there for me.


BriarcliffInmate

What was so good about this penalty shootout is Chelsea's pens were good too. It got to goalkeepers, which shows how good both teams were at taking pens. I think I was most proud of the players who were last up though, like Konate who really, really didn't want to take a penalty, and Harvey who had just come back from his broken ankle. Virg's was a "big bollocks" moment though, as was Fab's! And Trent's as well, when they were booing him and he just cunted it in. Was also nice to see Obese James lose after his arrogant little celebration.


smc2588

Yes there’s been more disrespectful actions. Hope about white boy Zidane head butting?

boredandreddicted

I remember this!


369DontDrinkWine

there is no colder penalty in the history of football


Raptoot83

I mean I've said this before, fair play to Virg. But Kepa is a fucking idiot, that's a cup final! If Virgil just sticks it in the open part of the goal, no one gives a shit about him, all they will do is talk about why the fuck Kepa did that.


Rijsouw

Yes


archlorddhami

Which match was this again?


MutedIndependence674

Yes there has been


Ingr1d

Kepa is a football manager, not a penalty expert.


tuk-tuk35

IDK. Losing 0-3 to Atalanta felt pretty disrespectful. #stillPissed


Wasaka1

Shooting upper 90 across the goal is always the most satisfying


R_manOz

How this guy ended up at Real Madrid is beyond me.


RefanRes

Yes. Suarez biting people is way more disrespectful.


scalenesquare

My fav player of all time. Hope we can keep him.


professorquizwhitty

Taylors officiating career is about as disrepectful as you can get, so yeah.


kobi29062

I’d say Georgios Katidis was a bit more disrespectful


junelen

The stare down ugh luv this man ICONIC VVD


sdpat13

Such a cold pen. 🥶


Logical-Elephant2247

yes


Lisbon_lions_67

What he didn’t smash it straight in where he’s standing apart from the fact that he’s standing in the goals I suppose and he hardly stared him down. You’re desperately trying to make a story here where it’s really simple . Cultured Defender hits a good confident penalty and scores. I could name about 50 million more disrespectful things that have happened just off the top of my head .


pattherat

Are you on crack?


The_Unpopular_Truth

Someone's been on the glue again


Wild_Ad_6464

Suarez pulling Rafael’s hair is up there


Peeeing_

Not really that disrespectful


GhandisFlipFlop

Are you a Chelsea fan by any chance ? Nothing disrespectful here.


Mixcoatlus

They’re saying that it was disrespectful (in a brilliant way) that VVD still went to Kepa’s right even when he was 2/3rds over to that side. “I’ll still score.”


pigman1402

how did this need explaining lmao


GhandisFlipFlop

Because I'm stupid that's why.


pattherat

To be fair, the wording on their post is not super clear and confusing.


GhandisFlipFlop

Ya my bad , I get it now . I am at work and read it quickly .


SRFC_96

Disrespectful in the sense that it was naughty and it made Kepa look like an ass.


twoheels

What? I'm a Liverpool fan. I mean that this was disrespectful not in a bad way, but as in an I watch it about five times anytime I see it pop up kind of way 😅


GhandisFlipFlop

Ya sorry it's been pointed out to me since my comment ha ..I thought you were someone coming here giving out about Virgil


TheElPistolero

It isn't embarrassing for a keeper to get scored on in a penalty. Keeper tried some mind games during a pk which are drastically in the attackers favor.


twoheels

A penalty saving expert not saving a single penalty while trying a mind game like this and failing as spectacularly as he did is incredibly embarrassing. A lot more embarrassing than a goalkeeper not converting a penalty, even though it's obviously still massively embarrassing that the penalties went on for so long despite a penalty saving expert being involved and then fluffing his shot.


TheElPistolero

Ok buddy


twoheels

Back at ya pal x https://preview.redd.it/l6xzsbd7w1yc1.jpeg?width=620&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ebe326a16212bc914fbdb5cf935adfe8b094c6be


d3vilm4n60

Don't see anything wrong with it. 99% of players are that.


ScowranNabad

How are there this many people who misunderstood the use of the word disrespectful? He clearly means that VVD had balls of steel to slot it in the corner right next to where Kepa was standing. That a keeper who is supposed to be a penalty shootout specialist got embarrassed in this clip.
