‘Why wouldn’t I?’: Eze would take England penalty despite Arsenal shootout miss

• Eze dismisses idea of changing spot-kick technique

• ‘If there is a penalty to take I’ll be there again’

Eberechi Eze says he will not let his missed penalty in the Champions League final stop him from stepping up in a shootout for England in the World Cup.

The attacking midfielder sent his kick wide when Arsenal lost on penalties against Paris Saint-Germain in Budapest last month but he is determined not to let the disappointment define him and is confident in his technique.

Eze, who also had softly-struck penalties saved for Crystal Palace in games against Liverpool and Newcastle last year, dismissed the idea that it is time to move away from his stuttering runup to the ball.
