Arsenal winger Raheem Sterling missed a stoppage-time penalty against Girona in the Champions League, leaving Tim Sherwood covering his face with his hands.
Arsenal secured a 2-1 victory over Girona in the Champions League despite an early setback following Neto's costly mistake, which allowed former Tottenham player Arnaut Danjuma to open the scoring.
Jorginho's penalty and a stunning long-range strike from Ethan Nwaneri sealed the win for Mikel Arteta's side.
However, there was late drama when Arsenal were awarded another penalty in stoppage time. Sterling stepped up but saw his effort saved by Girona's Pau Lopez.
Speaking on Sky Sports Soccer Special, Sherwood admitted he was disappointed for Sterling, saying:
“Oh, he's missed it. The goalkeeper has made a great save. I really wanted him to score because he’s played so well and needed that confidence. But it won’t change anything. I'm just disappointed for Raheem.”
