    Didn’t Italy draw with the USA? How could they have five wins?

    7 – The number of PKs missed by Argentina, Portugal and England.
    10 – The number of PKs made by Germany, Argentina, Portugal and England.
    58.82% – PKs made in quarter finals.

    Does anyone still think we need to move the penalty spot further back?

    Geez this was done without a whole lot of research wasn’t it – a sheet of the results is all it would take. Italy didn’t beat the USA, so they only have 4 wins. One of Portugal’s wins was on penalties, so we’ll give you that one.

    And finally, Ukraine won a penalty shootout over Switzerland, so that makes it 3 teams by my count.

  • Gerard

    Bob has not done his research before posting these numbers.
