![Video: Arsenal’s Martinelli fluffs his lines in penalty shoot-out and Sporting take full advantage](https://icdn.caughtoffside.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-16-at-23.jpg)
In a game that will surely be remembered for Pedro Goncalves’ audacious goal from near the halfway line, Arsenal star, Gabriel Martinelli will be kicking himself for missing a crucial penalty in the shoot-out that then allowed Sporting to progress in the Europa League by dispatching their fifth in a row.
Mikel Arteta’s side had looked good value for their early lead after Granit Xhaka had fired them ahead, but nothing could legislate for Goncalves’ invention.
The game see-sawed throughout and went all the way to penalties after the teams couldn’t be separated once extra-time had been played.
Both teams had been perfect from the spot until Martinelli stepped up, the groans from the Emirates faithful telling their own story.
