JOHN ALDRIDGE HAD his stutter and Robert Pires and Thierry tried to walk the ball into the net but a new penalty kick fail-safe is set to take the world by storm.
Maldives international Ashad Ali Adubarey slotted a penalty home past a bemused Afghanistan goalkeeper in a tense shoot-out. With the scores at 7-7 in sudden death, Adubarey stepped up, addressed the ball, started his run up and tripped.
The rest, is footballing history.
