Top quality 'cheeky' Pens. (Video)

We all love the thrill of a penalty shootout, except for when it's our team.

As a player who takes the occassional pen, I get in the zone, think about where I'm going to play it and then use all my strength to hide the 'tells' that a goal keeper looks for.

I like to think I've had a good success rate over the years, but even so - I don't think I'd ever have the cojones to try any of these! 

Here is the cheeky pen that sparked this train of mad penalty thought - If only the keeper hadn't have saved it, it would have been genius!

Deception at its best: 

 This one gets a large tip of the cap as he's managed to take the kick with his standing leg - we've all tried it since, we've all managed to hurt ourselves... 

Spain Under 19's 'wrong footer' :

Ah yes, the one that kept us awake at night through the summer - Andrea Pirlo - that is all. 

Pirlo Panenka : 

This guy definitely wasn't concentrating on the where he'd put it and how he'd stop the goalie finding out! Clearly got his mind on other matters! 

Celebrating early: 

This one is just pure class, 100% down the park, jumpers for goalposts gold. Well done lad. 

The backheel: 

Let us know if you know of or have any other beauties!
