In the 1959 European Cup final between Real Madrid and Reims, Enrique Matoes failed to successfully score a 16th-minute penalty for the Spanish giants. However, in the end, Real Madrid still won.
2. Mehmet Scholl:
Bayern Munich's Mehmet School failed to beat Valencia's goalkeeper with a 5th-minute penalty of the 2001 UEFA Champions League Final. Bayern won the match on penalties after the game ended in a draw after both official time and extra time.
3. Xabi Alonso:
On their famous comeback against AC Milan in the 2005 UEFA Champions League Final, Liverpool were awarded a second-half penalty that Xabi Alonso failed to take, but then recovered and scored for Liverpool.
4. Arjen Robben:
Bayern Munich came very close to winning the UEFA Champions League final against Chelsea in 2012, but they didn't. Bayern's Arjen Robben failed to score a penalty in extra time after Chelsea's Didier Drogba fouled Franck Ribery for 18 yards.
5. Antoine Griezmann:
After facing each other in the 2014 UEFA Champions League Final, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid met again in the final two years later. The match ended with a score of 1-1 and Real Madrid won on penalties. But maybe Atletico Madrid would have won if Antoine Griezmann had successfully completed his kick in the 47th minute. Of the five missed penalties on this list, only Griezmann was not saved by the keeper; instead, he hits furniture.

Anthony Martial came on from the bench to double United's lead and preserve the score with 19 minutes remaining. Jadon Sancho was named in United's starting line-up for the second straight game.
The Englishman set up McTominay to open the scoring with a clever pass and impressed in the team's victory.
He also made Man Utd fans restless after knocking out two Everton players who were playing very hard in the first half.
In the 21st minute, Sancho received the ball from his teammates and then went down the left wing.
Following the 23-year-old are Demarai Gray and Amadou Onana. However, Sancho managed to defeat both.
Gray tried to tackle Sancho but fell to the pitch after the Man Utd winger ran slowly.
Onana was also fooled by Sancho's change in speed and, like Gray, fell to the grass. United fans immediately stood up when Sancho made the ball forward.
Sancho passed the ball to Antony and the ball culminated when Marcel Sabitzer poked Jordan Pickford's palm. Check out the moment below...

if you play three games in six days and can do it, that's a big compliment to the team. We controlled the ball and controlled the ball very well - there were a lot of players on the pitch who played at a high level."
