It’s all the more bitter for me to miss a penalty shot in the last minute”, the player told bundesliga.de. I’m usually a very confident penalty-taker. I wanted to approach it from the right, but I kicked the ball too high and it unfortunately went over the bar. I guess I’ll have to think about that one for a while”.
