Question 530: I Said Keep Up the GOOD Work, NOT the **** Work....

ID the players below for a point each, but tell me what's the binding context through all the photos for 5 points straight. I need a VERY accurate ID on this binding context - not just a half-stop one.
Bonus points for IDing the individual contexts as well.






ANSWER:



Ronaldo for ManUtd - missing the UEFA Champions League 2008 Final penalty
David Trezeguet, France - missing the World Cup Finals 2006 penalty giving Italy the win
Roberto Baggio, Italy - the 1994 World Cup Finals flew over the crossbar with his penalty miss
Terry, John for Chelsea - dropping the big miss in the the UEFA Champions League 2008 Final penalty
Scholes for ManUtd - giving Arsenal the big 2005 FA Cup win by missing the penalty in the Finals

binding - all big Finals penalty misses, football


(apologies to the Truly Blue, no intentions to hurt your feelings!)

Judging by the 3rd pic (Roberto Baggio), I think these are all famous instances of a penalty miss.
