Just three days later, another penalty kicker controversy arose in the Italian soccer community.
Udinese striker Lorenzo Luca scored the first goal with a penalty kick in the 32nd minute of the first half in the 25th round of the Italian Cerier A match against Lecce at the Dacia Arena in Udine, Italy, on the 22nd (Korea time).
The team also won 1-0, so it could be a hero, and Luca was replaced by Iker Bravo four minutes after scoring the first goal. It was a kind of punitive replacement. Coach Costa Rooneyajic Udinese explained the background of the replacement after the game, saying there is a clear hierarchy in penalty.
Luca scored the most points in the team with his 10th Serie A goal on the day. However, Udinese's No. 1 penalty kicker is captain Florian Tobin. Luca shrugged off his teammates, saying he would kick them when his team got a penalty. He was even warned that it might be because of the time delay before kicking the penalty.
Coach Rooney Yachi said, `I didn't like that kind of behavior. The players talked for a long time, and in the end, Luca made the decision on his own."Luca, of course, kicked the penalty very well, but decided to replace (Luca) for those who did not respect the rules."

It is not the first time that the two players have argued for a set piece kicker position. We'll have a conversation this week."He stressed that "everything will be solved through training."
In the second round of the 2024-2025 European Champions League (UCL) knockout phase playoff between Atalanta and Club Brugge at Gervis Stadium in Bergamo, Italy, just three days ago, Atalanta striker Ademola Lukman was persistent in the 16th minute of the second half.
Lukman replaced him at half-time when his team was being dragged 0-3 and scored a comeback in the first minute. In the 16th minute of the second half, when the combined score was 2-5, Quadrado was fouled in the penalty area. Luke, who put the ball on the penalty point after a scuffle with his teammates, missed out, and the game ended in a 1-3 defeat. Defending Champ Atalanta shockingly failed to advance to the round of 16.
After the game, Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini publicly criticized Luke, saying "The worst penalty kicker I've ever seen." Matteo Lettegi and Charles de Ketelaire were ahead of the penalty kicker turn, with Luke, who had not taken the penalty well even during training, expressing anger at being the kicker.

In response, Lukman launched a counterattack through SNS. Rettegui and De Ketelaire claimed they were only in charge of the kick because they handed him the ball. "I always did my best for the team. The director's remarks make me feel disrespected.'
Italian local media observe that only Luke can leave Atalanta this summer. The Nigerian international Lukman moved to Atalanta from Leipzig in 2022 and has scored 47 goals in 105 appearances so far. Lukman, the team's Europa League winner in the 2023-2024 season, was also named Africa's player of the year 2024.
