Cech's woeful Arsenal penalty record extended against Watford

Petr Cech's woeful penalty record at Arsenal was stretched to 12 spot-kicks without producing a save.

His vast experience has proved to be a useful asset for Arsene Wenger, with Arsenal considered to have struggled in a vital area of the field since the days of Jens Lehmann.

Cech's ability to repel penalties makes for dismal reading, though, with the 35-year-old yet to keep one out during his time in north London.

Troy Deeney is the latest man to have beaten Cech from 12 yards, with his 71st-minute effort helping Watford to a 2-1 win on Saturday.

That is the first penalty Cech has faced this season, but he saw nine slip past him in 2016-17.

He also failed to keep two out in his debut campaign, with Jamie Vardy and Lionel Messi converting in Premier League and Champions League competition.
