Remember the epic quarterfinal match between Italy and Germany in the Euro 2016 tournament? The match ended up going to penalty kicks and it was both amazing and hilarious at the same time. We had some great performances and some botched attempts. Maybe the most famous one from the lot was when Italian striker Simone Zaza (otherwise known as just "Zaza") started high-stepping into his attempt.

It became a meme for a minute and a lot of videos around the internet could be seen mocking something that looked funny and ended even more hilariously (unless you're Italian, of course).

Well, Germany is still rubbing salt in the wound. This time it's in the form of Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki, who attempted to recreate the infamous penalty kick by Zaza in his charity game. The form and the result were entirely spot-on.

But that wasn't all of Nowitzki's antics. He also attempted a bicycle kick which was a disaster but also hilarious:

Nowitzki continues to be one of the most entertaining athletes and personalities we've ever seen.
