Scenario: The goalkeeper brings down a striker 1 on 1 in the penalty area, advantage is played as another attacker now has an open goal. The other attacker somehow misses.
What action is taken? Can the penalty be given, as advantage is the opportunity, not the outcome...
No penalty, the attacking potential was enhanced. So restart with Goal kick and dont forgot the caution for the goalkeeper.

No. Because the red card is for denying the opportunity to score a goal, not preventing one. In this case the attacking team still had a goal scoring opportunity which they missed.Wouldn't it be a red card as the goal scoring opportunity didn't result in a goal?

I personally thought myself that there was a line in the LOTG that said that advantage shouldnt be brought back following poor play but I cant find it so maybe I imagined it or have been told it by an observer/mentor.Can you explain more please or cite the guideline?
Surely you wait a couple of seconds to see if the advantage accrues - anywhere else on the field, if the next pass goes astray, within a couple of seconds you bring it back before signalling advantage - why is it different in the penalty area (if the shot happens quickly)?

This is pretty similar to something I read on a refereeing site a while back. Just to provide some food for thought, here's what it said:You might be practical and hold your breath (and arms) for a second to see what happens. If he misses you blow for penalty, if he scores you act as if it was advantage all along.
Advantage and the Importance of "Wait and See"
The question of applying advantage in the penalty area is often a source of debate in the soccer community. In most cases, there is no advantage to applying advantage in the penalty area. However, the Laws of the Game provide the referee a few seconds to decide whether to penalize the offense (in this discussion, award a penalty kick) or whether to apply the advantage.
Given this, when should a referee consider advantage application in the penalty area?
• Only when a goal is clear and immediate.
The element of time is important. The time between when the offense is committed and the result (which should be a goal). Since the Laws of the Game grant the referee a few seconds to make the advantage decision, the referee should use this time to observe the result. If a goal immediately results, in those few seconds, then the referee should apply the advantage. Referees should refrain from immediately applying and signaling the application of advantage. By using the wait and see approach, the referee gives himself a few seconds to see if a goal is clear and immediate.
If a goal is clear and immediate, then the referee should apply and signal advantage. If a goal is not clear and not immediate, then the referee should whistle the foul and award a penalty kick (as well as take any misconduct action warranted).
The guidance here seems to be firmly stating to wait and see the "results" not the opportunity.This is pretty similar to something I read on a refereeing site a while back. Just to provide some food for thought, here's what it said:
