Eh? Nearly every keeper decides to dive left or right before it’s taken and if you can hit it as hard as big Rom, I’d argue the middle is as good a choice as any.

Donnarumma dives before he even strikes the ball.

I can hit the ball much harder than Lukaku hit the ball for that penalty. There is a reason why very few players put penalties straight down the middle. If the keeper doesn't go that far across the goal he has a good chance of his legs saving those ones down the middle.

After watching Swiss vs Spain game, any pen that goes in, is a good pen.

Thats like saying that any shot that goes in is a good shot. If you smack a shot that is going 3m wide and it deflects in, its not a good shot. If you scuff a shot and it completely wrong foots the keeper, its not a good shot. If whatever you do would not normally result in a good outcome, its not a good example of how to score a goal.

In this situation Lukaku read it perfectly with the stutter watching to see if Donnarumma went early. It was a good pen.
