Robert Lewandowski missed a penalty with Bar\u00e7a against Atl\u00e9tico (3-1). The ‘9’ became the first Bar\u00e7a player to miss two penalties in the same LaLiga season<\/h2> \r\n
\r\n \r\n \r\n Calendar of FC Barcelona <\/a>\r\n<\/div>

FC Barcelona defeated Atl\u00e9tico de Madrid (3-1)<\/a> despite missing a penalty in the first half. In the 37th minute, with the score still tied at one goal apiece, Robert Lewandowski<\/strong> sent his shot from the white spot into the clouds, thus wasting the opportunity to celebrate his ninth goal in the tournament.<\/p>

Dani Olmo had drawn the penalty after a very clear foul by **Pablo Barrios**. Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea did not hesitate to award the foul, a decision backed by Pablo Gonz\u00e1lez Fuertes from VAR. ‘Lewy’ took the ball, but unfortunately missed the shot.<\/p>

The Pole wanted to secure it with a cross shot directly into the top corner of Oblak’s goal. However, although the Slovenian dived to the opposite side, **the ‘9’ executed a terrible shot, which went straight into the stands of the South Goal**. Luckily, Bar\u00e7a managed to come back in the second half, with another couple of goals scored by Olmo and Ferran Torres.<\/p>

Lewandowski Reached an Unprecedented Record with Barcelona<\/h2>

In matchday 8, against Sevilla (4-1), Robert also missed a penalty in the 75th minute. After a foul inside the box on Alejandro Balde, the 37-year-old forward took charge of executing a spot-kick that could have given the Catalans a partial equalizer (2-2)Lewandowski, on that occasion, also tried to adjust a cross shot with his right foot, but **the ball went wide of the post**. Goalkeeper **Vlachodimos** had guessed the side and, had it been on target, he likely would have saved the shot.<\/p>

On matchday 12, against Celta (2-4)<\/a>, the blaugrana’s number 9 also took a penalty in the 70th minute, with a strike very similar to the one in the Sevilla match. This time, luckily, the ball went into the net, although goalkeeper Radu <\/strong>came very close to saving it. In fact, ‘Lewy’ himself made a gesture of relief when celebrating the goal, aware that he had taken a rather unconvincing penalty.<\/p>

In this way, Robert Lewandowski became the first footballer in Barcelona’s 126-year history to miss two penalties in the same LaLiga season<\/strong>. A remarkable record, to say the least, for a goalscorer of his caliber. <\/p>

Lewandowski missed his fourth penalty in La Liga with Bar\u00e7a<\/h2>

Since his arrival in LaLiga in 2022, the Pole has taken 18 penalties, with a record of 14 successful and 4 missed. In his first season, he missed one attempt (he hit the post against Almer\u00eda in the victory at Camp Nou (2-0)).<\/p>

Then, in 2024, he missed another against Villarreal in the ‘manita’ at La Cer\u00e1mica (1-5). On that occasion, the forward also sent the ball to the woodwork. Despite the miss, that day the ‘9’ scored a brace.<\/p>

It remains to be seen if, from now on, Hansi Flick decides to keep Lamine Yamal as the penalty taker. The ’10’ already scored a penalty in the league against Rayo (1-1) and another in the Champions League against Olympiacos (6-1). Raphinha could also be an alternative, in addition to Marcus Rashford himself.<\/p>
