The Penalty Kick

The Penalty Kick is a comic story by an unknown author and artist (who may be one and the same). It features Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck, and, in his debut, A. N. Other.
== Description ==
After Huey, Dewey and Louie play a prank on Donald that breaks his foot and prevents him from playing in the soccer match, he punishes them by taking away all of their toys - until he listens to the match on the radio and realizes that his nephews have actually saved his neck!
===References ===
* Donald Duck was meant to play centre-forward in a soccer match against the Basham Rovers, until he broke his foot and was replaced by A. N. Other.
* During the match against the Basham Rovers, three men, all at centre-forward, were injured and had to be taken to the hospital.
* The Basham Rovers are, in the words of Donald Duck, "a tough crowd".
==Behind the scenes==
The Penalty Kick was first printed in 1948 in Mickey Mouse Weekly #478. To date, it has never been reprinted.
As in most issues of Mickey Mouse Weekly published at the time, the story doubles as the cover of the issue, with the main content of the story taking up the lower third of the cover and the story's splash panel taking up the remaining space.
