The Coppa Italia Dilettanti may not be the most glamorous competition in Europe — it's contested by amateurs — but the tie between Torres and Unione Sportiva Termoli has thrown up an unusual guilt-induced last-minute penalty miss.

Leading the match 1-0 (3-2 on aggregate), Termoli was given a dubious 90th-minute penalty when Vittorio Esposito went down in the box without being touched. Having been undeservedly awarded a spot kick, Esposito's conscience got the better of him when he stepped up and made absolutely no attempt to put the ball in the net.

Thats nice of him

And Raptor, your sig is painful to watch

Reminds me of Klose back in the day, think it was in 2. Bundesliga. Happens way too rarely, especially because pros will get endless grief from their clubs.

Let his team down.

Lol didn't even try and hide his disgust

LOL, the funny thing was I was just about to change it lol.

expected this being about another Gyan miss

that's what charlie adam was doing in the cc final too!

Superb gesture, even if his team was leading the tie at such a late stage. It would have meant more had the situation of the teams been reversed, however it's still nice to see sportsmanship of this kind.

That guy deserves a frakking trophy.

I only wish some players nowadays had that sort of attitude. Last time I saw something like that was when Schweini defended an opposing player against an unfair red card.

And Arshavin arguing with the ref when he got a penalty because he thought it shouldn't be a penalty

I doubt he would have done that if they were not practically winners already.
