Eight years on from that Ramos penalty

Sergio Ramos is as safe as houses from 12 yards. If you had to bet your life on him scoring a penalty, he would almost certainly score it. But it was not always the case. It has been eight years since his worst penalty ever.

Because of execution and because of what it might. Because it took place in the Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich. After 210 minutes of tension and a 2-1 win which made things all square after the Germans win in the first leg. It came to a penalty shootout and that is where Ramos missed.

Alaba and Mario Gomez scored the first two and Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka both missed. But then Kroos and Lahm also missed. Xabi Alonso scored and it was Sergio Ramos' turn to level things up.

However, Ramos' shot went over the crossbar, it was a terrible penalty. Schweinsteiger then netted Bayern's fifth to send the Bavarians through. If that wasn't enough, Neuer rubbed salt into the wounds with that "I didn't know Sergio Ramos liked hitting penalties over the crossbar."

Real Madrid at that time were very different. They had not been in the final for 10 years so there was lots of excitement ahead of the game at the Bernabeu. A brace from Cristiano turned things around, but then Robben's penalty sent it to extra-time. Then in the penalty shootout, Ramos had a moment to forget.
