Czech legend Antonin Panenka says he is proud of the penalty kick technique that bears his name to this day, adding that he was not at all nervous when he experienced the now-historic shooting.
The famous Panenka Penaltia came to the Euro 1976 final between Czechoslovakia and West Germany, a match that ended 2-2 after regular time.
In the subsequent attack, each of the four Panenka team's companions marked their penalties before the West Germany's Uly Hoeness loses his shot, reports the news.
Panenka was next and threw the ball at goalkeeper Sepp Maier, in a style that was unique at the time.
A few years ago some television stations from South America came to me and showed me about 50 penaltys with Panenca from players around the world”, he told Goal.
And the best executioner was from someone from the Second Paraguay League, he concluded.
