Kobe Bryant is one of the world’s elite athletes. An icon. The biggest name in basketball world wide right now.

He’s not the guy you want taking your soccer penalty kicks.

Kobe loves the sport and came down to take some PKs after a Turkish soccer game (he’s in Europe on a Nike tour), and the guys at the Orange County Register found the video of feed of that. Kobe has some skills, but he’s no Messi.
