The nightmare of playing a "refuted" opening is that sometimes actually gets refuted.
Faster time controls help the attacker. Surprise helps.
Sometimes it is not enough.

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Nxe5 6.d4 Qh4
First appearing in Sorensen - X, Denmark, 1888 (1-0, 27).
7.O-O Nf6 8.dxe5
White is under pressure, but taking the enemy Bishop when he has the opportunity (8.dxc5) is probably more helpful.
8...Ng4
9.Qd5+
Striking out, but it does not save him.
9...Ke8 10.h3 Bxf2+ 11.Rxf2 Qxf2+ White resigned
Checkmate is next.
It does not always have to end this way.
