Panenka fail for Venezuela's Luis Manuel Seijas in Copa America
Sunday 19 June 2016 13:10, UK
Venezuela midfielder Luis Manuel Seijas certainly won't want to watch back his embarrassing attempt to deceive Argentina's Sergio Romero with a chipped Panenka at the Copa America on Saturday.
Seijas' missed penalty - which fell into the goalkeeper's hands - summed up a poor performance for Venezuela who were knocked out in the quarter-finals of the tournament, losing 4-1 to Argentina at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts.
Gonzalo Higuain's double put the Albiceleste in control at half-time, before Lionel Messi made it three to match Gabriel Batistuta's all-time record of 54 goals for Argentina.
Salomon Rondon got Venezuela on the scoresheet in the 70th minute, only for Argentina substitute Erik Lamela to score his side's fourth with a deflected finish from Messi's pass just a minute later.
Gerardo Martino's side go forward to Tuesday's semi-final clash with host nation the USA in Houston.
