AC Milan striker Balotelli shrugs off losing perfect spotkick record

AC Milan striker Mario Balotelli has shrugged off losing his 100 per cent spotkick record.

Balotelli saw his penalty saved by Pepe Reina in defeat to Napoli last week.

"It had to happen sooner or later, though people really were just waiting for it to happen... It's true the other night I lost concentration. Reina did well, but I looked him in the eyes only up to a certain point. I then lowered my gaze and it went badly."
