Graziano Pelle said he wants to "apologise to all Italians" for his penalty miss in Saturday night's Euro 2016 quarterfinal clash between Italy and Germany.

And Pelle, who missed one of the decisive spotkicks, has come under criticism for his gesture towards Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer in the shootout where he implied he was about to do a Panenka-style chip.

Yeah, I thought his gesture to Neuer was really cocky.

I have to say that I like that the Italians got knocked out on penalties. Pelle's cocky little gesture to Neuer followed up by arguably the worst penalty ever taken and Zaza skying his shot after his ridiculous runup and Bonucci's miss after doing his stupid little stutter-step.
