Penalties are scored about 75% of the time (even by the best takers). If you take two of them in the same game it's close to 50-50 (45-55ish) that both aren't goals. It's not really 'guts' (guts were needed for the first one too), and it's not even really unlucky. It's maths.

24 people in a preseason game where you have to pick four Prem players whose season league goals add up to exactly 21, and all four of them must score at least once. 3 out of 24 nailed it. Utterly ridiculous for three to do it (my effort bust by two as Trossard scored too many).

I see all the cathedral fans are out in force tonight. Never mention their love of cathedrals on the other 364 days of the year do they?
