    Never understood that, in fact it's ********. They are there to be won on the pitch, not by drawing straws... :D

    To some extent yes, but practice and most professional players should hit say 80 out of a hundred, I'd take those odds in a lottery!

    I think I read somewhere that the world cup is about 72% success rate on penalties

    wasn't that what was said when the argument was for another promotion place earned over the full season instead?
