The Round of 16 hasn’t been the best for Arsenal players as both Mesut Ozil and Granit Xhaka failed to convert from the spot.
Mesut Ozil’s missed penalty against Slovakia did not affect the outcome of the match, as his German side dominated a tame Slovakian outfit to win 3-0. Granit Xhaka’s shocker on the other hand, had severe repercussions as his failure to convert from the spot saw Switzerland bow out of the tournament, losing 5-4 on penalties to Poland.
Here are the two missed penalties:
And this is how Twitter exploded on the Arsenal duo:
Arsenal players proving NOBODY takes worse penalties than we do. #ozil #xhaka

Ozil letting Xhaka know you can be world class and bad at pens. Captain material imo

2 Arsenal players take penalties (Xhaka / Ozil) both miss. Nice to see them bottling it for club and country. Arsenal through and through.

Well yes it is little bit disappointing Xhaka and Ozil have both missed penalties. On the other hand, I’d rather they do it now.
