I remember that scenario.....

I think the pressure was a bit too much for him on that occasion. I would choose Zlatan because he has the overwhelming confidence that a PK taker needs.

I remember Trez scoring against us on a PK during a WC and netting the winning goal against us again to win EURO. So I think the pressure doesn't bother him.

Nah, taking a PK in the Champions League final is rather tough. When I saw Trezeguet step up to take his penalty in May 2003 I knew he would miss because his facial expression was that of a prisoner sentenced to the electric chair. He did not look focused and he was obviously flustered. I think pressure can get to anyone in those situations.

I saw that in his eyes too. I don't know what happened to him in that moment. It's not his style.

I'll tell you one thing though, I'll never forget that look on his face. :down:
