People really want the return of Golden Goal?

yeah this is for each individual pen isolated and looked at in a vacuum. So let's say average probability is 70%, you would have to take (0,7)^4 to get the probability that your team scores all four pens that go before the 5th one, which is what really matters.

that is not what matters ...

lawd ha mercy ..

the fifth penalty is taken if teams are at most 1 pen different (order dependent) irrespective of how many have been scored overall.

all four previous could be missed by both sides and the fifth would still be taken.

are you american breh? serious question

England are the best team at the tournament, quite comfortably

English fans never know how to chill

Gakpo/Depay/Bergwijn attack is VERY fast.

Looks like the Netherlands plans on playing on the break. Think they can pull it out 2-0.

Thinking about England France game more. I think England have a more talented squad but it's not a large gap however Didier Deschamps is better at game management yet he's really handicapped with the lack of depth so I think he's going to give England some respect and sit deep look to counter, England will then have to make a choice keep possession without a lot of space to operate and be vulnerable to the counter attack or sit deep as well turn it into a chess match. Tactically this might be one of the most interesting games in the tournament and a litmus test for Southgate because he's been found out in the past against Italy and Croatia taking the lead in both games and not knowing how to the manage the game. If France get the first goal it might be over.

It’s a dumbass strategy when your best players can end up not even shooting

i've seen in depth discussions about this before. general rule is



that is what managers tend to do
