A penalty kick is when you place the ball on the penalty spot and the kicker has to score with a single touch of the ball while the goalkeeper will have to dive to make a save without leaving the goal line. That is why in the current format, they call it a "penalty shootout". Because it is a shootout performed through a series of penalty kicks.

I prefer the more traditional pk but I don't understand the hate towards shootouts. At least shootouts require more skill and seem more fair to me, the shooter only has 3 touches and 5 seconds to make the shot while the keeper is rushing at you. Even world class strikers would miss more shootouts than they miss penalty kicks. Traditional pk's are like 50% guessing, 30% goalkeeping and 20% good shooting.

@@PatRick-hu1nq Yes and you can see the goalie holding up 5 fingers to the ref as if to say "WTF, you gave him 5 touches."

[@utahsportfanatic]

It's amazing that this was even a thing. I wonder how the players felt about it.

[@christianastorga4555]

it depends which players you ask

[@jonblaze3100]

always a fan of those shootouts when there was a draw

+g4meboy13 mls initially didn't allow for ties, which is cool IMO

hate draws, always should win someone

I'm glad this is over

[@Angellopez-nz4ir]

We do this in indoor but we have 5 seconds to score

[@ImaginingMonitor]

Better than the way they are now.

[@thedoc77777]

This is so much better than penalty kicks. Less luck. More skill, mind games, and decisions.

[@ishthefish9006]

Orlando Camacho luck???mind games???traditional penalties are way better fag

[@cwm6203]

@@ishthefish9006 No it's not and yes pens have luck

[@Alchemistic88]

This is fun. Would be cool to see stuff like this in a football equivalent of an All Star Weekend. Like with the NBA they have these fun challenges to see world class players do skills or shootouts. No reason why we can't have a FIFA version of that.

[@Sqwallyw]

I feel so bad for America sometimes.... Especially because of things like this 😂😂

[@de132]

MLS is actually okay enough now. It's the 2nd best league in its continent behind Liga MX, and has some decent competition. But from 1996-99, when the only players entering the league were players from NCAA soccer or guys from other parts of the CONCACAF Hex that isn't Mexico... it was rough.

@Hugo Almeida they always want to be different than people...that is america

@Hugo Almeida I hope you're joking LOL

Unpopular opinion : This way of taking penalties is better and funnier than today's penalties

[@peterleschinski8198]

I'd rather have this then penalties to decide cup games obviously not league games. Shows more skill then just normal penalties which is more of a mental thing. And I disagree that european players would just chip the keeper, how many times do you see a player one on one with the goalkeeper and somehow fuck it up.

[@aCKs98]

Peter Leschinski lo

[@dirtybaytexas]

Finally somebody knows what he talking about Just the other day URUGUAY LOST VS PERU but URUGUAY was the better team but they went 2 penalty shootout and lost I BET IF THEY DID THIS URUGUAY WOULD HAVE WON

[@PooNagoo]

The goalie vs goalie is great hahaha

[@josh-xj6tl]

He did one of these penalties than he did a normal one? Why not just a normal penalty in the first place

[@chuy020]

This would make matches interesting than a regular shootout

[@DeathlessKY]

These shootouts were amazing.. Americans hate draws which is a big reason why soccer isn't a top tier sport here. It was a great idea that required more skill than a basic penalty.

[@bigoof8570]

Deathless no

[@theprince08853]

It requires less skill.

[@giovannifoulmouth7205]

you obv never played football in your life

[@lala3308]

Mmmm it is actually easier than conventional penalties....

[@Lucas_Tulic]

Yeah! it was SO great, that they forgot about it in 99!!!

[@asyoucanseeimatroll579]

This actually looks more entertaining.
