LUCAS Hradecky was sent sprawling to his right while the ball flicked off the underside of the bar and in.
Celtic star Josip Juranovic showed his nerves of steel to level the scores for his side away in Germany.
And not only did he finish from the spot, but the Croatian full-back deftly lobbed the ball up and off the bar to restore parity with the stylish Panenka effort.
Celtic earned the penalty after Kyogo was wiped out in the box by Leverkusen captain Hradecky.
The keeper came diving out of his goal attempting to punch the ball but only caught Kyogo in the face with his clenched fist.
After a VAR check the spot-kick was awarded, leaving it up to Juranovic to step up to take it.
He coolly used the Panenka technique to fool Hradecky and ensure Celtic went into the break level at 1-1 in Germany.
How's your nerve, Josip Juranović?! 🍀
