VIDEO: Worst penalty of all time?! Osasuna and Croatia striker Ante Budimir misses 98th minute spot-kick with disastrous effort

LaLiga

Valencia

Real Betis

Osasuna

Villarreal

<p>The Croatian forward had the chance to equalise and secure a point for Osasuna after the club won a last-minute penalty against Valencia but the player blew the chance with a disastrous effort. He initiated a stuttered run-up but then faltered and eventually took a weak shot which saw the ball land straight into the hands of goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili.</p>
