Penalties are an integral part of the game of soccer.
Throughout history, we've seen quite a few creative ways to score with a penalty kick from 11 meters, but what the Firenze striker from the second division in Portugal did today (Sunday), we probably haven't seen and probably won't see in the future.
The Brazilian Jaredel decided to freeze in place with his leg in the air for a few seconds after the referee whistled, (which is not against the constitution) until he decided to kick and scored without a problem.
The second time unfortunately, he was already stopped by the opponent's goalkeeper, who learned the trick faster than expected.
Jardel's goal against Leixões is one of the most unique penalties you'll ever see.
