THE PENALTY SPOT IS CLEAR IN THE DIAGRAM !
WORLD CUP ~ THIRTY TWO Countries qualified
SIXTEEN eliminated in two weeks
WE are now entering ~ Quarter Finals
EIGHT Teams will remain ~ Some UNEXPECTED !
CROATIA & RUSSIA ~ Little & Large
Are a pairing in the Quarter Finals
They got there by ~ A Penalty Shoot Out
To reach the Quarter Final ~ YOU MUST WIN !
In NINETY minutes or in extra-time
THEN ~ PENALTY SHOOT OUT ! Each team selects
GOAL KEEPER ~ And then the FIVE FIRING SQUAD !
Normally Forwards ~ PENALTY SHOOT OUT !
Each of the FIVE takes a PENALTY ~ And
The best of FIVE wins ~ or more are taken !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX
Sudden Death or Sudden Glory ~ KO or OK ! RUSSIA KO\'d
SPAIN and CROATIA KO\'d DENMARK ! Russia has proved
an excellent venue and deserves the success ~ and more
important it keeps their supporters (144 million) K O O L !
England play Colombia on Tuesday in the QF\'s and we are
infamous for our Penalty Shoot Outs so I hope we win in
the 120 (plus 30) minutes allocated ! Yours Brian & Angela
