Dani Parejo scored the ensuing kick to put the Yellow Submarine ahead in the 29th minute of the goal-laden first-half.

With that, Musso has conceded three penalties across all competitions in the 2025-26 campaign, to match a feat only achieved by Brentford goalkeeper Caoimhín Kelleher. 

Also, he holds the record for an Atlético de Madrid goalkeeper in a single campaign in the Diego Simeone era.
