What on earth went on for second penalty?

I love the big guy and he won the penalty but in my opinion it was totally wrong for Uche to go grab the ball and insist he takes the penalty, Clare had already put one away expertly so it was a no brainer he should take the next one. I had a bad feeling and rather than put the game to bed it gave Partick a new lease of life. Would like to have seen Berra maybe take control there and tell Uche to hand it to Clare. That said we won and Uche had a great game so no harm done in the end.

It’s the Scottish cup 1/4 finals not u10s Sunday league

Famous 1874

Have to say it was absolutely ridiculous giving him a penalty only being 2-1 up in a Scottish Cup quarter final especially after Sean Clare slotted a great pen.

Craig also mentioned that Uche had been stressing about not being on the scoresheet for a while so that may be why he had the agreement.

 

God awful penalty nonetheless.

There should be a firm and better policy for pens.    Any doubt... let Souttar shred the net with it.    End of.

Our usual policy is  to let Naismith miss them

Or maybe Craig was spinning a yarn about him taking it, to deflect attention away from the fact that he went against team orders and nearly cost us the match.

 

Love the big guy, but hes gotta learn that he doesnt do it all by himself.  Remember another point where he and Mulraney were out on the wing and the ball came out there.  Uche took it from Mulraneys toes and faffed about before losing it.  Far better to have left it to the winger, and get his ass in the box for the cross.  Just my opinion likes.

You do know this is really common. I mean realllllly common unless its a Pressley , Le Tissier , Ronaldo percentage pen taker

 

Can’t exactly say we have a dedicated penalty taker. Uche will also get told it ain’t happening again in a tight match.

For what it’s worth I’d have soapy taking them. Kid can hammer a ball 50 yards to a blade of grass, let him find the postage stamp from 12.

You would think that your centre forward would be able to hit a decent shot from the penalty spot though!!

It shouldn't have been a big deal.

He just wanted to score another goal, simple as that. It's better to have special players for such work. It's like face-offs in hockey - very important part of the game, but some people don't understand that.

Yep I heard it on the radio on my way back and just about crashed the car. God help us. The Q-F of the cup ffs. Absolutely absurd. God help us in a shootout then if this is the kind of decisions made. Clare scores a great kick so to change it for that reason ?

Ronaldo at penalties = outstanding

Neymar - not so much

 

Players would rather try the cute technique than the efficient technique though...

From now on Clare or Bozanic on penalties.

Uche's was awful.

 

The correct answer. Or Michael Smith when back, he missed his one but it was a well hit pen and apparently bangs them in on the training pitch.

Ronaldo bust my bet for £400 by missing a pen previously.

I heard the interview with Levein and took it that Clare and Uche had an agreement that Uche would take the pen if he won it, rather than Uche and Levein having an agreement.  Either way get Clare on the pens, put his away well.

 

Levein also confirmed that Uche would take another penalty......

 

 

if the other 10 players on the park are all injured ?

Uche is so hard he should just smash it.

I would not like to be behind the goals when he does

I didn't think it was a penalty, it looked like he threw himself down. Really hope I'm proved wrong on Sportscene in a few minutes.

Frankly that is just ridiculous and could have been very costly!

Why do we continually make it easy for Keepers to save our Penalties??

 

Rule 1    Feckin Hammer it

 

Rule 2   Lift the ball high into the net instead of something resembling a backpass

He'd got on the scoresheet earlier. So shouldn't have been an issue. Never should be, either. The important issue is winning/killing the game off.

Was never a penalty anyway. The other one with Anderson was though. 

 

Correct. 

 

The Anderson challenge was a stonewaller and they never mentioned it.

Clare's penalty wasn't a wonder strike, keeper goes the right way and that's a shocker of a hit too.

 

Why does nobody smash them these days for us?

Tbf to Levein, the agreement was with Austin McPhee - set pieces are his domain. Confirmed it won't be happening again.

Uche is so hard he doesn’t give a feck if he misses it.

Clare’s penalty was decent, hit right in the corner and with enough power that I feel would have beaten a keeper even if they guessed right.

dont know what you saw?

Just bizarre.

Great incentive for him to go down easy for then.

I reckon Neymar has a better conversion percentage. Admittedly I've hardly seen psg this season so he may have missed a few this year, apologies if so.

For a big lad, Uche shots are very powder puff! 

His goal was a corker though, don'tcha think?
