What is the balliest way to take a penalty?

Straight down the middle? A Penenka? Athletic Bilbao striker Aritz Aduriz has displayed another entry on that list: the one-step run-up. Aduriz gave his side the lead by breaking the deadlock in their La Liga clash will Real Valladolid on Saturday. The 37-year-old veteran did not mess about, simply taking one step behind before slotting the ball past Valladolid keeper Iago Herrerín, and into the right-hand corner https://twitter.com/ElevenSports_UK/status/1076577824360796160 On social media, the penalty has been compared to something you'd do down your local 5-a-side pitches. It was the second penalty Aurizhas scored since new manager Gaizka Garitano took over at the start of December. Things did end well for his team though - Oscar Plano equalised for Valladolid in the 92nd minuted, and the game finished 1-1.
