"Emiliano Buendía missed a late spot-kick as Villa squandered an early lead to suffer a 2-1 humbling in Deventer. Evann Guessand put them on course for a sixth successive win in all competitions, but they missed a host of chances to kill the game and came unstuck as goals from Mathis Suray and Mats Deijl either side of halftime gave Go Ahead a famous victory in one of the biggest games in their history."
"And normally he has good numbers shooting penalties, but he missed. Of course, something can happen, and we will try to get more clinical in the penalty shoot than the last penalties we have had.

And, of course, Emiliano can repeat, but the idea is try to be so, so responsible about the decision and about the takers who can score."
