Video: Gabon player catches keeper off guard with genius penalty technique

Why don't more players try this?

Those of you who missed the highly anticipated friendly between the world footballing behemoths of Gabon and Zambia, missed a really special spot kick. Yeah, we know, "did you see that penalty in that friendly the other day?" doesn't sound like a real conversation starter, but this penalty was just different enough to warrant our attention. Late in the game in which his side were trailing 0-1, Gabon goalkeeper Moto Bitsek duped his opposite number with a commendable effort that had us asking, "why on Earth don't more players try this?" (The penalty is at the 1:20 mark) https://youtu.be/71wbNBybrKY?t=1m19s Cheers to SportsJOE reader Jake Gill for sending this video our way.
