Video: Former Tottenham player tries a Paneka in play-off final shootout and immediately regretted

John Bostock, a former Premier League player, suffered an embarrassing moment during the National League play-off final when he missed a Panenka penalty that could have won the game for his team.

Bostock had already made a significant contribution to the game by scoring an 88th-minute equalizer for his side.

However, when it came to the penalty shoot-out, he was entrusted with the responsibility to score the winning penalty, but his cheeky attempt ended up hitting the crossbar, leaving him red-faced. He was visibly upset, seen lifting his shirt over his face in anguish after the miss.

Fortunately for Bostock, his team Notts County managed to win the shoot-out against Chesterfield and secure promotion despite his mistake.

The incident has since garnered attention on social media, with fans sharing clips of the miss.
