They thought they lost the shootout.
But is there a tiny party that thinks, oh God, now it's me who can lose the shootout after having had my goal wrote off in extra time?
I just wondered how that...
mentally was for him and then of course he does miss his penalty.
Yeah, I actually thought like the first few Paraguay penalties were brilliant.
And this was the whole thing, wasn't it?
Because Germany historically never losing penalty shootouts.
And I was thinking, oh, so all it took to beat Germany in a penalty shootout was to just take magnificent penalties.
And then it turned out, actually, you don't keep doing that and it still works out.
But yeah, listen, I think the emotion again of Enciso when he scores, the full...
bloodied commitment to getting to penalties and and it felt like a team with a plan for penalties even though that plan then went a bit wrong i kind of wanted to bring up because this is going to be foreshadowing another game but this idea of bringing a substitute on just to take a penalty that always seems to go wrong missing the that what ends up not being crucial penalty but could have been because it was the last one
I'd love someone to do a real statistical deep dive into this.
I think it's probably hard to do because how do you assert that a player is just being brought on for a penalty?
But it does feel like the ratio of specialists assumed to be brought on to make it and then missing it, in my mind, feels much higher than what it should be.
This idea that you can't play in a counter-attacking way.
Because to me, it felt like actually it's the one sort of thing where Antonio Conte would get angry and say, we're not counter-attacking, we're playing fast-break football.
It's then completely different.
But if you've got Crescencio Somerville, who in this game looked to me like, you know, on YouTube when you...
trying to speed through some highlights and you click it up to 1.5 speed.
Every time he was on the ball, it was like that happened.
