00:00Here are the five best penalty techniques in football and the players who invented them.
00:04A lot of people don't know the last one, but first answer. This questions. If you want Darwin's
00:08finishing, keep scrolling. If you want the combo of Neymar and Ronaldinho comment maestro. If you
00:13want the combo of Messi and Ronaldo, like subscribe and comment goats. Okay, let's continue. At number
00:19five, the pass penalty. Instead of shooting, the taker simply taps the ball sideways for a teammate
00:23to finish. It was first done by Johan Cruyff and Jesper Olsen. At number four, the hop and hit. The
00:28player makes a small hop before shooting just to see which way the keeper moves. Once the keeper
00:32dives, the ball is placed calmly the other way. This clever technique was made famous by Jorginho.
00:37At number three, the paradigna. The player suddenly pauses during the run-up, making the keeper dive
00:42before the shot even comes. That little pause gives the taker a free corner to aim at. This
00:46technique was originally created by Pelé. At number two, the power shot. This is the most common
00:51penalty technique, but Cristiano Ronaldo pushed it to another level. He stomps his left foot firmly
00:55into the ground, giving the ball a slight lift the moment he strikes it. At number one, the
00:59Panenka. Instead of blasting the ball, the player gently chips it down the middle while the keeper
01:03dives away. It looks risky, but when it works, it's pure magic. It's was first done by Antonin Panenka.
