I hate penalty shootouts. Even if I don't have a team in them they still make me super anxious. I want to throw up just thinking about them.

Yeah and it’s just about luck. It can go either way no matter which team was stronger during the actual game. Of course the result has to be decided somehow but I’d rather see teams win by playing.

That’s awesome. I love the discussions we have about football throughout the year.

Yeah, penalty shoot outs are pure luck at the end of the day. But I rather watch them if I don't have a team I'm really rooting for.

Thanks for the link. I already found them since I was curious.

Maybe if I don’t care about who wins at all, I don’t mind watching penalty shootouts. If I root for one of the teams they are nerve-wracking.

This game between Denmark and Croatia is boring the hell out of me.

Me being an England fan seen enough penalty shootout nightmares and England manager Gareth Southgate was one of them who missed

Yes a penalty shootout is definitely luck but I see why they're necessary.

I've enjoyed our soccer discussions too. This is the first World Cup where I can watch a game I see players I recognize. Last world cup I only knew Messi and Ronaldo.

World Cup is a special tournament. If people not into soccer that is fine but you know there is something amazing about the WC

Knowing more players makes it even better, doesn’t it?

Casual fans and even people who usually don’t follow the sport watch the World Cup. It really is the biggest sports event for a reason.

Yes it really does. I know at least 1 player on just about every team.

Someone needs to score in extra time!!

It’s fun to spot players in the national teams that you’ve seen playing club football all year.

I don’t think Denmark is exactly known for that. I’m supporting Croatia more but Denmark is actually controlling the game more.
