    Champions league semi final goes to a penalty shootout up steps a centre half to take the crucial 4th kick.

    You'd have had Higuain, Granero or even Khedira ahead of Ramos surely?

    End of the day mate it's a champions league semi, if they don't want to take a penalty they shouldn't be on the field.

    Not all player want to take them, Ian Rush was one of the best goalscorers i have ever seen, yet he would never take a penalty, Strange thing how it affects different players.

    If 3 or 4 of the 11 won't take one that is a poor showing, they might end up having to take one anyway.

    Completely agree. Multi-millionaires from playing football, demanding £200k+ per week for scoring goals but not enough bottle to take a penalty.

    I'm a goalkeeper, yet I always volunteer.

    Scored one a couple of weeks ago in the final of a tourney over here. I took #3 mind; always have.
