Now this is a PK shoot-out, learn from this SI


Recommended Posts

Belenenses - Porto. The game happened this afternoon. There were 30 penalties, however that's not the point of this thread. The point is goalkeepers DO make saves on penalties, and players DO take weak shots, and players DO hit the post.

How many of those saves were down the middle? Not many.

Haha me and my mate always talk about this, but your the first person whos mentioned this on the forum. I dont know why this happens but keepers on FM can't save shots to their left or right on penalties :confused:. They only save shots down the middle of the goal. I hope this is sorted out for when the new patch comes out, also this was deffinatly happening on 09 and 08

Penalties seem fairly realistic to me - outcome wise. I seem to miss more than I should, if anything. Van der Vaart, Lampard, Dzeko..all missed two in a row in separate seasons.

I'll bet they wouldn't miss if they were playing against you ;)

In modern football the goalkeepers get away with so much in penalties.

The goalkeeper is not allowed to move forward from the goal line until the kicker has kicked the ball.

If you watch the video above, almost in all instances the goalkeeper moves forward before the kick is taken.
