Julian dicks enters the penalty chat. No messing

Ruud van Nistelrooy always took a mean ‘Brexit’ penalty

According to this, the Panenka success rate is about 5% lower than other approaches

The history of the Panenka penalty

After Cole Palmer's audacious chipped spot-kick against Spurs, Ben Bloom dives into the origins of the technique

That’s certainly one way of interpreting that article! But I appreciate the effort to be objective about it!

“In my dataset, the scoring rate of a true Panenka is statistically similar to that of any other type of penalty kicks; although it is slightly lower.”

He estimated that the conversion rate of Panenkas “could be 4-5 percentage points lower than the average penalty kick”, although he pointed out that the data size to work from is small

Said that at the time

What I mean is, you can't condone what the Senegalese players did, but it may have just effectively won them the tournament.

Or Killer.

Though I do remember him trying to be clever against some tiny Norwich bloke who had to go in goal after their keeper got sent off, and dribbling it past the post.

What, takes an age to actually take it after numerous failed run ups and then manages to smack it into his own face?

 

[Nick]

If that was a pen though. Emc was a victim of abh against Brum

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Apologies that was meant to be a reply to this which references him not celebrating at the end

what’s the point in muting me and reading al my posts

Meh, it’s as objective as one can be based on the data we have.

to be fair he is just saying what the person behind the report said was the findings

 

[David O'Day]

because it allows me to choose if I have to see the nonsense you post, for example I will not read any of the frankly dull "look it me2 posting you do on the transfer thread

it's nice

 

[Shannerz]

And earlier in the game when their defender debagged Bobby Thomas.

i’m not sure, those jeans and shoes were pretty odd fella

 

[SBT]

to be fair he is just saying what the person behind the report said was the findings

The bit where he says that panenkas are “statistically similar to any other kind of penalty” and that the sample size is small also seems like useful context, no? I genuinely want to know the answer to this!

 

[Nick]

You would think theres a punishment else it sets the bar of teams just walking off.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Think CCFC should try this the next time we don’t get a pen

 

[David O'Day]

not at the time fella, if you paid more attention to fashion you may have seen a naked woman that wasn't a) paid for b) scared or c) in pixel form

but thanks for proving my point

Was it David Brent cosplay? did you have the sergio georgini leather jacket too?

Take it elsewhere lads

I’ve been well behaved last few days, he has me on mute yet still replies. very odd.

Piss poor "The Office" based jokes, no wonder you are such a hit with the ladies.

 

[David O'Day]

We'd have to walk off multiple times a game these days,

You’ve done so much WUMming on here I’ve had genuine trouble working out when you’re trying to behave. Maybe best playing fair for a while?

I will. Unfortunately David likes to follow me round here like a puppy following its owner

 

[David O'Day]

Anyway, back to the game.

Morocco looked beaten before the goal went in. Extra time was all Senegal.

Diaz probably wishes he'd stuck with Spain

 

[Alkhen]

President of Morocco looked absolutely thrilled to be handing the trophy over there

 

[fernandopartridge]

I dont remember them leaving or missing for games.. could be wrong as was only young

Sent from my SM-A176B using Tapatalk

We did, it was a bit later than this year's tournament. I think they left for it after the FA Cup 4th round (which was played earlier than usual at the beginning of January due to Man United playing in the club world cup)

 

[SBAndy]

Didn’t watch the game but saw plenty of footage of the ball boys trying to steal Edouard Mendy’s towel during the match. Wtf?
