In Galatasaray’s recent fixture against Istanbulspor of the Turkish Super Lig, Mauro Icardi featured in a horrific miss for his team. While trying to recreate the iconic goal scored by Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi, with a loophole while taking the penalty, Icardi failed to convert the ball.

The open miss from 12 yards after receiving the pass from Kerem Akturoglu drew comparisons on social media to Thierry Henry and Robert Pires’ similar mishap for Arsenal in 2005. Irrespective of the miss, Icardi has been terrific for his new club, scoring on 10 occasions in 11 appearances.

Icardi’s miss drew massive outrage from fans on social media. However, the Argentine striker showcased an elite mentality as he bounced back. Football fans still await to see a recreation of the iconic goal score
