If that happened against us (and it probably will the next time we play Fulham) I would expect one of our players to take the Red card and launch the player into Row Z at the next possible opportunity.
In reality a penalty shoot out is misnamed. They really are not penalties just a direct shot at goal to decide a result after the regulation game has finished. The requirement for a direct shot at goal is the relevant fact.
and for those few interested, here's the actual wording
The player taking the penalty kick must kick the ball forward - He must not play the ball again until it has touched another player - The ball is in play when it is kicked and moves forward
That Spanish league isn't football , its like the Harlem Globetrotters playing exhibition games every week , where's the competition ?? the greed of Barca & Real have killed a once good league where you had Valencia , Deportivo, Sevilla all competing for the title, some of those leagues used to go right to the wire yes Messi & Suarez are class, but you are essentially watching testimonial football , its dull as dishwater id rather watch Aberdeen vs Dundee TBH
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

a team-mate of the player taking the kick infringes the Laws of the Game: the referee allows the kick to be taken if the ball enters the goal, the kick is retaken if the ball does not enter the goal, the referee stops play and the match is restarted with an indirect free kick to the defending team from the place where the infringement occurred
Am I reading it wrong but it seems to say that if you miss, the infringement by your side is punished whereas if you score, while not given the goal, you can try again
This. He plants his foot inside the 'D' on his run up just before Messi takes the penalty. But it was very close and pretty much impossible for the linesman to spot.
