[h=2]AWANA DIAB, the footballer who became an internet sensation with a backheeled penalty, has been killed in a car crash.[/h]The United Arab Emirates midfielder, 21, shot to fame in July thanks to a cheeky spot-kick in his country's 7-2 win over Lebanon.
Considered a promising talent, Awana was tragically involved in an accident when travelling back from training yesterday.
Khalfan Al Rumaithi, president of the UAE FA, said: "Awana was very honest, keen and committed to his duties. It's a great loss for us, it is very painful news."

[/URL]FML. :(

Poor bloke, that penno took some guts aswell. RIP.
 
Well, at least he's in the history books. He'll live forever..

R.I.P . Real tragic.
 
I'm going to be that guy

What are the odds he was using his flair in typical Arabian peninsula driving fashion? (ie...fast car + poor attempt at drifting)
 
RIP Awana. :(

but any leads to the killer, or is it the opposition gk at did this ?
 
i have a feeling that this is Karma .


Karma is a Bit*h
 
Karma might be a *****, but he was only 21. He had a full career and a full life ahead of him =(. RIP.
 
Have to admit, never heard of the chap til now, so know very little about him. But tbh, to say karma's a ***** for doing an extraordinary penalty, is way ott to be honest.

R.I.P
 
I had that dude in Bani Yas in my UAE save in FM :( gutted.

A friend of mine that lives in Dubai city told me that it happens often because they drive recklessly!

I don't think a taking a cheeky backheel penalty is equal to death, even in 'Karma's' terms.

this.

but remember when the he score he got subed immediately ,and the manger said it like a 'shame' or something similar to disgrace in the media.
