Wilfried Zaha just produced one of the worst penalties in Premier League history vs Norwich

Wilfried Zaha certainly had an eventful game at Norwich City on Wednesday night.

Having returned from Africa Cup of Nations duties with Ivory Coast, the Crystal Palace star simply didn’t seem to be at the races during the early exchanges at Carrow Road with criticism raining in on Twitter.

Marry that to Teemu Pukki having fired the Canaries into the lead with less than a minute on the clock and it’s fair to say that proceeding weren’t exactly going Zaha and Palace’s way.

However, true to the unbelievable talent that everybody knows Zaha possesses, the former England international pulled the rabbit out of the hat by scoring an equaliser in remarkable fashion.

Cutting in from the left wing on his favoured right foot, Zaha let rip with a brilliant shot that flew past Tim Krul and into the far top corner for one of the best Premier League goals of 2022 so far.

But don’t get too excited because that’s where the brief reprieve ended for Zaha as he proceeded to take one of the worst penalties that we’ve seen in England’s top-flight just a few minutes later.

While it might not sound all that awful on paper that Zaha scuffed his spot-kick wide, checking out the footage quickly reveals what’s so bad about the penalty with the Palace man truly bodging the contact.
