Francesco Totti used the Panenka to beat Edwin van der Sar in Euro 2000 semi-final penalty shootout, after Italy and Netherlands had played out a goalless draw over 120 minutes. On a terrible day for the Dutch that saw them miss two penalties in regulation time and three in the shootout, Totti rubbed some more salt into their wounds by pulling off a magnificent panenka, which sent Italy into the finals.

Totti attempted many of these penalties throughout his career and missed out on a fair share of them as well, but not in this crunch situation.
