Doppeltes Elfmeter-Drama bringt zwei Niederlagen

West Ham 1 Manchester United 2 (Tore: Benrahma, 30.; Ronaldo, 35., Lingard, 89.; vergebener Elfmeter: Noble, 95.)

Mark Noble wurde in der “injury time” eingewechselt, als West Ham ein Elfmeter zugesprochen worden war, schnappte sich den Ball – und vergab! (Grafik: BBC) Das letzte Mal, dass Noble verschossen hatte, war übrigens 2016…

RB Salzburg 2 SK Rapid 0 (Tore: Adeyemi – Elfmeter nach Foul von Wimmer an Adeyemi und VAR-Entscheidung in der 79.Minute; Aaronson, 95.)

That’s “football… Bloody hell” (Alex Ferguson) – oder auf gut Deutsch: „Fußball… verdammte Scheiße!“

PS: Hier ist die Begründung, warum Declan Rice den Elfmeter nicht geschossen hat (aus The Telegraph):

Declan Rice had the ball in his hands, but he had missed his last penalty – in fact West Ham had missed four of their previous five – so the penalty duties were handed to the experienced Noble. It was the 95th minute.

And so Noble’s first touch was to drive the ball to David de Gea’s left, but the goalkeeper dived to push it away – the first penalty Noble had missed in five years – and the first that De Gea had saved in that time. He was mobbed at the end by relieved team-mates, joined by manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

In fact, it was seven years – 22 penalties – since De Gea had saved a spot kick in the Premier League and he looked as stunned as Noble.
