If the penalty had been on target but same power then I agree. However

I think if he'd hit it properly then he wasn't saving it if close enough to the post. I thought the same as Gunn had chosen the right direction and was close to the ball, but the slip affected not only the direction but also the power.

  - McGovern would’ve still tipped it behind even as wide as Zaha skewed it (n/m) (NCFC) - NorskyNormann, Feb 11, 18:24:26

    - He made some great saves regardless of our hypothetical penalty discussion (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Feb 11, 11:47:12
      - That Zaha goal though. 2 Gunns and a Krul would've struggled with that. (NCFC) - Captain Bligh, Feb 11, 11:53:23
        
        He’s not consistently that good though. As shown at Man Utd. (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Feb 11, 13:26:53
        
        McGovern would have headed it away, easy. (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 11, 12:06:25

        might have had to stoop a little, maybe? (n/m) (NCFC) - paulg, Feb 11, 12:20:57
        
        probably just chested it down tbf (n/m) (NCFC) - Chris Peacock, Feb 11, 12:53:23
        
        He did. He went to Man United but it didn't work (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Feb 11, 11:58:15
        
        That's my point, I should've inserted 'succesful'. (n/m) (NCFC) - Captain Bligh, Feb 11, 12:05:26
    - ^this (n/m) (NCFC) - Chris Peacock, Feb 11, 11:21:06
  - So you're saying if he'd taken a better penalty just inside the post, with power (NCFC) - jamesward, Feb 11, 11:01:37
    - No I am saying Gunn seemed to have it covered because it was so slow (n/m) (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Feb 11, 11:46:13
  - If it had been on target with the same power I could have walked over and sat on the ball. (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Feb 11, 10:57:57
    - Ha ha. Indeed. (n/m) (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Feb 11, 11:45:46
