We all love United
There's already a thread on it in the other forum. Brilliant pen though, reminds me of Hargreaves smashing into the top corner

The only one I've seen similar (off the top of my head) was David Luiz in the Munich 2012 shoot out.

That was Ballack or Matthäus quality.

I wondered what was happening when he stepped up.

His strike of the ball on that penalty was absolutely sensational. Even if the keeper went the right way he would never have saved that.

Simply brilliant from Maguire.

I could imagine Maguire running up and right before booting the ball, he closes his eyes and imagines 5 Greek men standing in the corner of the goal. Motivation.

Owen Hargreaves' penalty in the 2008 Champions League final shootout was brilliantly placed iirc. You could argue Maguire's penalty was the best of the shootout.
