With his side leading 1-0 shortly before half-time, Beknaz Almazbekov cut inside from the left and went down under pressure from a defender in the box. However, replays showed there was no contact from the right-back, who immediately protested his innocence with his team-mates. Scroll down for video Beknaz Almazbekov went down in the box but there was no contact from the defender And Almazbekov, who looked more to have lost his balance rather than anything else, was clearly unhappy with the referee's decision to give the spot-kick. The 13-year-old thus decided to take matters into his own hands, righting the wrong by intentionally firing the penalty miles wide. The Kyrgyzstan's admirable act clearly won him respect from his opponents who reached out to shake his hand in acknowledgement.
