I'm so glad these weak attempts are being punished. What happened to smashing it past the keeper?

At least Japan made one. Those were just embarrassing.

why do you not put Morata or someone else in first...why save? seems like momentum always gets zapped by a crummy first kicker...

I'm just confused, for as good as Busquets is in various parts of his game, attacking ain't it. He's really one of the best 5 Luis Enrique had on the pitch?

It's why I personally never relied on trying to fool the keeper, even though it worked somewhat for the Morocco converters.
If you hit your PK well, the keep has no chance. If you are trying to game the keeper, and he outdoes you at it, its a weak attempt and easy save.

Penalty kicks aren't necessarily about your attacking skill, though it's not remotely wrong to make that assumption.

A lot of my best pk-takers when I was coaching weren't necessarily forwards. Mentality is huge.

These guys gotta start going up there and hammering balls into the low corners. Penalty taking has become an exercise of over thinking for most of these guys who aren't up there taking regularly penalties for their clubs.

I said it yesterday…this trickery stuff needs to start going out of fashion

Exactly. Pick your spot and thump it into it. Just got to beat the keeper to the spot. And those weak Spain attempts sucked.
