Lots of Everton fans have been left fuming over footage showcasing Richarlison at the weekend.
As shared by The Toffees Blues on their Twitter page, the striker missed a penalty for Brazil in their Olympic Games final against Spain while the score was still 0-0.
Will Richarlison leave Everton this year?
Yes
No
Richarlison opted for a stuttered run-up and ultimately ended up blazing his shot well over the top of the crossbar, prompting him to hold his shirt over his head in shame.
It was not a good penalty at all and does not bode confidence going into the new season if the Toffees win a penalty and he ends up taking it.
Richarlison will want to get over it as soon as possible so that he can be fully focused when he returns to the Everton squad under new manager Rafa Benitez.
Everton fans on Richarlison penalty
These Toffees supporters fumed as the footage of the 24-year-old’s penalty miss was shared on Twitter, with one fan claiming that it was ‘utterly awful’:
“Serves him right for that stupid stutter run up. Just run and hit it. None of that for us next year I hope”
“Messing about with his run up”
“Any player who misses a pen after a run up/dance move should be barred by the manager from any pens in the future. What a total embarrassment”
“I never want to see him take an Everton penalty”
“Richarlison’s just put himself down the bottom of the list for being our penalty taker next season”
“Utterly awful penalty..”
