This awkward looking back heel penalty (degree of grace -1.75) had the unfortunate effect of mesmerizing the goalie into thinking Awana was going to moon him when he turned around because his reactions were that of a man drugged on a cocktail of morphine, percocet, and trazodone topped off with 30 shots of moonshine.
But it really means Carlos Tevez and Elano have a better chance of scoring penalties this way.
UAE was already leading Lebanon 5-2 and it was the 78th minute which perhaps emboldened Awana into this lifetime performance. For comparison sake here is Totti's far more graceful version.
N. Waleed, it was a terrible penalty. But nowhere near as bad as the goalie. That's the reason why it's gone viral. The UAE player faces sanctions for trying this cheap stunt and rightly so.
i seen this video and honestly i didnt like the penalty at all. i think it was very slow, and the keeper was very bad. i think the keeper should have saved it, and at that time, it will make more hits on youtube as one of the top bloopers of the year
