Eberechi Eze says he is prepared to take penalties for England at the World Cup even after missing a spot kick in the Champions League final for Arsenal against Paris Saint-Germain. Multiple outlets report that the 27-year-old sent his penalty wide in that shootout, and that he does not plan to change his approach or stutter in his run-up. Eze also says he will “step up” if England reach a penalty shootout again, indicating he would volunteer to take another spot kick rather than step back because of the earlier miss. The Guardian and other reports add that Eze dismisses suggestions he should alter his technique, arguing instead that he remains confident in it. The Athletic (NYT) notes that Eze has received supportive messages from other players who have missed major penalties, reinforcing that he views the setback as part of a broader experience. Overall, the reports present Eze as acknowledging the miss but emphasizing continuity, willingness, and confidence about taking future penalties for both club and country.
