Penalty shootouts in World Cup
A bit late :), but here is an idea on how to fix the 'penalty shoutout' problem in important games.
The problem? It's the 'did they relaly have to win with a penalty kick?' problem. You're watching this great game, both team play well; the ball is round, and the score is 2-2 at the end of the extra time. Then, we go to shoutouts; somebody makes a mistake and one of the teams end of with the greatest wins in football history. You feel somewhat cheated, even if you're not fan whose team lost.
A friend of mine had an idea while we were watching the France-Italy final.
At least for important games {which one isn't btw?}, have the teams complete the penalty shoutout _before_ the game. This will practically force all players to play till the final whistle.
Just an idea... I think it's a great idea.
