VIDEO: Liverpool youngsters try dizzy penalties and Joe Gomez doesn’t even make it into the box

Steady does it

When taking a penalty, the minimum requirement is surely to make it into the 18-yard-box.

But when you deny yourself of all equilibrium that becomes a daunting task as Joe Gomez recently found out.

Liverpool’s new 18-year-old left back and teammate Jordon Ibe are the latest lads to attempt the dizzy penalty phenomenon and, to put it politely, they both struggled.

While Ibe showed off by managing to get his shot on target, 12 rotations meant Gomez started stumbling on his first step and hit the deck before crossing the line of the area.

How do you think the lads did, Bren?
