FANS were left in disbelief after Fabio Vieira's penalty miss against Manchester United yesterday.
Arsenal collapsed to a 2-0 defeat at the MetLife stadium, but the friendly was due to have a penalty shootout regardless of the score.
And that caused even more misery for Arsenal, with the Gunners collapsing to a 5-3 defeat thanks to Vieira's penalty miss.
The Portuguese international skied his penalty over the bar and then looked down at the penalty spot to suggest his howler was caused by a divot in the ground.
And fans were quick to react to the penalty miss on Twitter.
One fan wrote: "Commentator said Fabio Vieira's pen landed somewhere in Philadelphia 😭😭😭"

While a third fan wrote: "Fabio Vieira still hasn’t changed from last season.
"Sent his penalty to row Z after he was heckled by Man United supporters, who mistook the game for a cup final.
"I was at the stadium, he panicked after the boos."

The Portuguese youngster will face increased competition for places this season with the arrival of Kai Havertz for £65million pushing him further down the pecking order.
