Did you see Eric Bailly’s missed penalty? The Ivory Coast star missed his spot-kick against Egypt in an AFCON 2021 last 16 battle on Wednesday night.
There were just quite a few things that were unique about the penalty kick. Firstly all the action was unusually slow, Bailly's kick looked brilliant but so was Egypt goalkeeper Mohamed El Shenawy’s save.
There’s more.
On a real closer look at the kick, it looked like Bailly actually went for a no-look kick.
Check out the action below to judge for yourself.
It was a no-look as well 💀💀 pic.twitter.com/6HPWqAklON
