5 funniest Panenka fails

#4 Alexandre Pato

Sometimes a missed Panenka can be funny simply because of how bad the attempt was. If you try a Panenka and fail to even get lift or central direction on the ball you look even sillier than those who get the right elevation only to find that the goalkeeper has maintained his position.

Alexandre Pato knows how that feels. In the penalty shootout that decided the 2013 Copa do Brasil quarter-final tie between Corinthians and Gremio, he needed to score to prevent Corinthians from getting eliminated but instead saw his trickled effort comfortably saved by Dida, his former teammate at AC Milan.
