Same side as the LC final but nowhere near the corner. First two Dutch pens were poor

Martinez is a good penalty saver

VVD’s was a solid penalty that was well saved at full stretch.

Nope. If a keeper doves that way for that penalty and doesn't save it they look a mug. Good height and placement for the keeper, poor pen.

VVD won't get any peace once he gets to Dubai after that poor penalty

Yeah needed to be higher. Easy save really.

Most penalties scored are easy saves if the goalkeeper happens to fling himself in the right direction. If the keeper doesn’t move, it looks like an ace penalty. If you have to be critical then I guess he may have telegraphed his placement too much

Nah, that was a poor pen (so was the next one too). Needs to be lower or higher. It was put right in the keepers sweet spot. They choose the right way and its a save every single time.
