“It happens to the best in the world. It happened to Gareth (Bale) in the Euros. Top players, they put themselves up.

“I am so proud of him for putting himself up, he is a world-class footballer.

"He had the courage and conviction to take a penalty.

“Top players recover from that, no problem. I have no doubt whatsoever if it comes to penalties that he will take one.”

Ramsey has a chance to end this season on a high as he will contest the Scottish Cup final with Rangers against Hearts.
