Er, would that be Antonin Panenka possibly?



Hmm, or maybe not
'Czech player Antonín Panenka, who introduced this technique to the world in the 1976 UEFA European Championship final, when he beat West German goalkeeper Sepp Maier to claim the title for the Czechoslovakian national team. [1][2]. However it is now believed to have been pioneered by Manchester City and Wales forward Billy Meredith 70 years earlier' (Wiki)
