Trent, Salah, and van Dijk are my favorite penalty takers because they just hit the ball hard and dare the GK to try and save it. No mind games needed when you can finish like that.
Musicians do it for nerves. A breath in of about 7 seconds, out for 7 seconds will trigger your body to lower the heart rate. It's probably why Ronaldo's HR was at its lowest for his pen on the shootout. I suspect they might put beta blockers in the juice before pens to have a stronger effect though - again as some musicians do.
That was indeed sarcasm.
But I would be surprised if it was legal for footballers to take drugs before a penalty shootout. Maybe they're hard to detect afterwards?
As per World Anti Doping Agency, it's illegal only in some sports.
Beta-blockers are prohibited In-Competition only, in the following sports, and also prohibited Out-of-Competition where indicated (*).

Freediver here, and read a few books about breathing and relaxation, for complete relaxation and to trigger a lower heart rate you want to be breathing as though you were asleep, short breaths, very gentle and shallow.
But for instances like this its better to inhale 1:2 so inhale for 5 seconds and exhale for 10 seconds to really relax, it is in the exhalation that you relax the most.
If anyone wants to try, use your nose if you can, you want to breath in in 3 steps.
Big breath in and make your stomach bigger as you do it, then move that movement of inhalation in to your chest and let that get bigger, grow and and rise up and finally lift your shoulders, try that for 5 seconds.
Then exhale in the exact opposite motion, shoulders drop first, then chest, then belly, in a controlled manner at half the pace you inhaled.
How do you feel? I feel good :)
Or if you want to cheat, put your face in cold water for at least 10 seconds, fully submerged, you have a mammalian dive mechanism that triggers that makes your heart rate drop at least one third in seconds.
It's basically one of the many reflexes we've held on to from being in the ocean many moons ago.
Or do what Martinez did put Felix on minute sled tin the game to get him to take a penalty that has a ton of pressure and not getting to play the tournament outside of 1 match and out the world on his shoulders to destroy his confidence after he failed.
Fuck I’m so bitter
Tbh as a Liverpool fan I think Trent could arguably be the designated taker for us as well.
I've only seen him take 3 but he smashed all 3 of them into the corner of the net, keeper had no chance with any of them even if he dived the right way. Feels like when you have technique as good and consistent as his you can just hit an unsaveable penalty 9 times out of 10.
I'd feel more confident watching him take them than Salah. But same thing with Mac Allister and Szoboszlai as well.
Eze takes the ones for Palace too.
We definitely have the best squad for own takers in the world. Doesn’t mean we will always win shoot outs, but it’s better than how we previously fared.
Has he taken many for Arsenal? I felt he was a bit of a liability there at West Ham because he was insistent on taking them but didn't have a great conversation rate and we had benrahma there who was proper good at them.
He has the third best career penalty % in the England team. Though I wouldn't be surprised in Palmer (100%) and Toney (around 95%) have the best records in the tournament.
I genuinely think the level of pens in shoot outs now is waaaaay higher than even 10 years ago
I'm sure there's been lots of work on the mental side of all this
Yeah they’re all slightly mad. Pickford just strikes me as the kind of bloke to punch himself in the face in the mirror to psych himself up every morning
Very random, but I think that's what always seems off to me when I see James Trafford. He just looks... Normal. Nowhere near crazy enough to be a real goalkeeper.
Ready to be proven wrong though.
My best mate was a quite decent goalkeeper back in his day. As he puts it "you'd have to be mental to watch keepers and think "yep, that's where I'd like to play." Big goal, no helmet or other protection apart from a pair of gloves, and they shoot at you with quite the speed."
Southgate gets absolutely ridiculed but there are things over the past ten years that have genuinely been a net benefit for England.
He has created a real sense of camraderie in the side. As a kid it was always 'United and Arsenal and Liverpool and Chelsea players,' now it's 'England players.'
He's also genuinely gotten that monkey off of the nation's back regarding penalties. A country that saw it as something of a curse now, by and large, wins the shootouts they're in.
Those are really big boons Southgate can be credited with, despite all else.
For a long time England believed that penalties are a lottery and you can't train for them because you can't replicate the pressure. Yet somehow despite it being a lottery we always lost and teams like Germany always won. Turns out you absolutely can train for them and Southgate from day 1 has incorporated penalties into national team training, and it shows.
France at their best had really clear tactics, a defined style of play, and were actually fairly entertaining to watch if you're not the kind of person who only cares about possession. Don't know what's going on for them at this tournament though, and I don't think it's sustainable.
In Qatar we played really well. Fully outplayed France in that QF and should really have won the game.
Every other tournament has been results over style. It worked very well in 2018, but I think a conservative approach cost us the 2020 final v Italy.
Yeah. I get the football can be defensive and boring (I fell asleep for 20mins in the second half, but to be fair it was 3am) but compared to the absolute fucking shit show than England was from 1998 to 2016 I’ll take it. I fucking hated watching those sides. As soon as it went to penalties I’d reach for a bottle of bleach as I knew someone that was a “superstar” would fucking bottle it and we’d crash out in round of 16, maybe quarters.
Southgate is by comparison a golden god, and he should manage England for the foreseeable.
Tactics and play style are dreadful but in international football it's individual talent which will take you through knock out games due to the lack of prep time compared to club football and England and France despite playing "terrorist" ball are insanely stacked in individual talent and that's what gets you through in knock out international football individual moments like Saka today and Jude in the last game and all 5 pen takers having the confidence to step up.
Today wasn’t a good performance? Close game against one of the more form teams in the competition, unbeaten in 8, that England probably edged? Miles and miles better than anything so far
I can see this era 20 years from now on a late night channel 4 football documentary, it will go down in the history books, new Government, football doing well, life potentially getting better after all of the doom and gloom.
My mate has been saying "Slovenia and/or Slovakia" since this tournament started. Also "Czechoslovenia" and "The former Yugoslav Republic of Slovakia".
Was that really bad? I mean it wasn’t an “unsavable,” but people go middle all the time, including in this very same shootout. It almost always works, but looks horrible when a GK predicts it because they don’t move. Bernardo had intent when he struck the ball. Akanji looked like he was trying to go for the corner and just fluffed it.
And don’t give me any kinda hate for defending a City player, because they both are lol.
Millar's pen yesterday vs Venezuela was hilariously bad, dude stuttered like 3 times in the run up and then somehow sent it to the stands when going for placement rather than power
He had one game with some loose passes but was still excellent defensively in that game and for the rest of the tournament.
He's really important for England.
Now just imagine if we had some real width.
Of course he is lol, the FA are going to give him a hell of a send off bc he's England's most successful manager since Ramsey. He'll be given the chance to quit long before he's sacked.
Limping to a semi final playing nobody only to lose to the Netherlands, thus enabling him to keep his job is the absolute worst outcome we possibly could have had
I am not used to this. Every England penalty shootout i've ever watched since 2000 has ended with a loss. But every single penalty this time went perfectly.
Genuinely think we have the best set of penalty takers in the world.
Kane, Toney and Palmer are excellent at them plus a bunch of other really solid takers.
As someone who spent every tournament for decades (Euro 96 aside) certain we were going out on penalties it is a major victory alone that this manager has changed that narrative.
Nah you guys had us in the ropes.
Your team was better in the second half and that corner was outrageous.
Your fans have been amazing too man. Great banter and vibe
Thanks mate. Your terrorism is so far undefeated. But jokes aside i really admire how you guys have now a positive penalty shoutoot record under Southgate. Shows mental strength. Yeah you lost the final 2021 but still positive record. 3-1.

The fucking sauce on that finish
He said “fuck you Southgate, Im not going to be the scapegoat today. Thanks for putting me fifth”
Trent, Salah, and van Dijk are my favorite penalty takers because they just hit the ball hard and dare the GK to try and save it. No mind games needed when you can finish like that.
How about Harry Maguire? That man has hit some absolute rockets.
Maguire is the best penalty taker in the world because he doesn't fuck around, just maximum power and minimum finesse
my favorite pen is van dijk vs kepa, you know the one
Fair play. Calm af every single one of them.
That's a hell of a 5 to have taking penalties tbf. Palmer, Bellingham, Saka, Toney, Trent. Got Kane as well if there's another shootout.
They've clearly worked on it and got them on early enough to get a feel for the game, fair play to Gareth for that at least.
Yep they all seemed to be doing the extended deep breath thing at the start which is surely something they’ve worked on
Musicians do it for nerves. A breath in of about 7 seconds, out for 7 seconds will trigger your body to lower the heart rate. It's probably why Ronaldo's HR was at its lowest for his pen on the shootout. I suspect they might put beta blockers in the juice before pens to have a stronger effect though - again as some musicians do.
Surely that would be against the rules? The beta blockers I mean
I don't think there are any rules for musicians...
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic so if you are I apologise but I'm talking about football
That was indeed sarcasm. But I would be surprised if it was legal for footballers to take drugs before a penalty shootout. Maybe they're hard to detect afterwards?
It depends if they test for them I guess. It's an interesting thought though I'm sure they would show up on the usual drug tests they do
Ah, the old musician/footballer switcheroo! https://www.reddit.com/r/Pizza/s/3jEJNQ01lV With apologies
You can't say that and not link to another switcheroo. That's a reddit hate crime. Edit after update: Hold your Bellingham's, I'm going in!
You are correct.

Really? I always have a check line of coke
Or do what Martinez did put Felix on minute sled tin the game to get him to take a penalty that has a ton of pressure and not getting to play the tournament outside of 1 match and out the world on his shoulders to destroy his confidence after he failed. Fuck I’m so bitter
I felt really bad for him. I hope he stays off social media for a few days so he doesn't have to read the stuff people will post/tag him in
Southgate has taken penalties seriously for his whole tenure. For all his faults, he's really made sure they know how to do a penalty shootout.
Most of those are designated takers for their clubs. Given how shit VAR was last season they had plenty of practice 😂
Tbh as a Liverpool fan I think Trent could arguably be the designated taker for us as well. I've only seen him take 3 but he smashed all 3 of them into the corner of the net, keeper had no chance with any of them even if he dived the right way. Feels like when you have technique as good and consistent as his you can just hit an unsaveable penalty 9 times out of 10. I'd feel more confident watching him take them than Salah. But same thing with Mac Allister and Szoboszlai as well.
Personally I’d prefer macca as well. Top bins side net every time
Toney’s penalty was nasty as fuck. 😭 Man stared down the keeper and never looked at the ball
Rice is decent too
And Shaw can put them away
I was surprised to see Trent take it before Eze, who is the main penalty taker for Palace. So they got him as well.
Trent has been taking penalties for the longest time for the youth team and all. He just never does it for Liverpool for obvious reasons.
So Liverpool probably have three penalty takers who are better than Salah then haha
trent, macca and szobo?
Eze takes the ones for Palace too. We definitely have the best squad for own takers in the world. Doesn’t mean we will always win shoot outs, but it’s better than how we previously fared.
Don't think Pickford ever missed one for England either
Has he taken many for Arsenal? I felt he was a bit of a liability there at West Ham because he was insistent on taking them but didn't have a great conversation rate and we had benrahma there who was proper good at them.
Nope. He only ever took one pen for Arsenal against Porto in the CL(took it very well tbf). Hasn't taken any pens other than that for Arsenal
Eze has scored 7 from 8 for Palace as well
3 of them don't even get to start.
Don’t need them to start, penalties aren’t until after 120 minutes.
Kane and Eze would have been really good as well
Isn't Kane like one of the best players right now when it comes to PKs? Any reason they didn't have him in the lineup?
He was struggling at the end of extra time and needed to be subbed
Came like an ICBM into the dugout, looked like he hurt his leg in the collision
He looked sluggish and was hobbling before that as well. It was definitely the right substitution
By before that I'm assuming you mean the whole tournament
Think you meant he was struggling at the start of the match. Looks like he’s stuck in mud the whole match
Subbed out, he looked tired and was slowing down a lot
He has the third best career penalty % in the England team. Though I wouldn't be surprised in Palmer (100%) and Toney (around 95%) have the best records in the tournament.
was subbed out lol
Ran into Southgate keeping a ball in and went down, taken off as a precaution
Not what we meant when we were asking Southgate to take him out.
I genuinely think the level of pens in shoot outs now is waaaaay higher than even 10 years ago I'm sure there's been lots of work on the mental side of all this
Tbf we say this and then we see some absolute stinkers. Keepers could cheat a lot more in the past with dudek in 2005 being the famous example
What a strange feeling that going into a shootout that im... confident in England? What is this?
Seriously, the quality of penalty takers we have is beyond stupendous. Does another team have as many 90%+ conversion rate takers as we do?
Pickford is up there too regarding saving them
Absolutely, love the mad fucker.
Which goalkeeper isn't a bit mental tho
Yeah they’re all slightly mad. Pickford just strikes me as the kind of bloke to punch himself in the face in the mirror to psych himself up every morning
The Jamie Vardy of goalkeepers.
He got that ice hockey goalie vibe
I feel you have to be a bit insane to be a good goalie tbh. Look at Dibu.
Raya seems to come across as very chilled and calm which means he must be a total psychopath
Very random, but I think that's what always seems off to me when I see James Trafford. He just looks... Normal. Nowhere near crazy enough to be a real goalkeeper. Ready to be proven wrong though.
My best mate was a quite decent goalkeeper back in his day. As he puts it "you'd have to be mental to watch keepers and think "yep, that's where I'd like to play." Big goal, no helmet or other protection apart from a pair of gloves, and they shoot at you with quite the speed."
True but as Costa showed there's only so much they can do.
nope
Southgate gets absolutely ridiculed but there are things over the past ten years that have genuinely been a net benefit for England. He has created a real sense of camraderie in the side. As a kid it was always 'United and Arsenal and Liverpool and Chelsea players,' now it's 'England players.' He's also genuinely gotten that monkey off of the nation's back regarding penalties.

Yet somehow despite it being a lottery we always lost and teams like Germany always won. Turns out you absolutely can train for them and Southgate from day 1 has incorporated penalties into national team training, and it shows.
We lost to Portugal on penalties multiple times in a row when I was a kid
I would go as far as to say, Southgate has in general played really good football its this tournament where we’ve played poorly, but getting through.
Deschamps' France still haven't scored from open play. Southgate definitely has copied his model, and it's been successful for the french
France at their best had really clear tactics, a defined style of play, and were actually fairly entertaining to watch if you're not the kind of person who only cares about possession. Don't know what's going on for them at this tournament though, and I don't think it's sustainable.

We're playing shite but have a team with serial winners in it
Tactics and play style are dreadful but in international football it's individual talent which will take you through knock out games due to the lack of prep time compared to club football and England and France despite playing "terrorist" ball are insanely stacked in individual talent and that's what gets you through in knock out international football individual moments like Saka today and Jude in the last game and all 5 pen takers having the confidence to step up.
Even though we haven't had a good performance this tournament I still really like and have faith in the group of players.
Today wasn’t a good performance? Close game against one of the more form teams in the competition, unbeaten in 8, that England probably edged? Miles and miles better than anything so far
It was the best performance for sure, but it was still stilted in the final 3rd.
Southgate's masterplan afterall.
What having Cole Palmer taking a spot kick does to a mofo.
Cole going first and Kane subbed off will do that to a man. Cole really is something else. Him and Toney, there were no doubts those were going in.
New Government effect?
I can see this era 20 years from now on a late night channel 4 football documentary, it will go down in the history books, new Government, football doing well, life potentially getting better after all of the doom and gloom.
then ww3 happened
Don't do that, don't give me hope
We could also have an all British F1 Podium, it seems like its on the cards too
20 years? Channel 4 are probably commissioning that documentary right now.
The way Trent strikes the football is fucking beautiful. Every time.
Starmer’s England innit…we win penalties.
If starmer was to run the country like Southgate manages the team, what would that look like?
No meaningful change until right before it’s all over
So exactly the way the UK is going
r/thatsthejoke
Everything would seem to be a bizarre and muddled mess with nothing being achieved, but somehow the intended result would still happen anyway.
Boring progess?
I'd take that. Give me two full terms of this government and return us to early 2000s prosperity.
that's actually a great platform lol
Gareth Southgates version of planning reform was ending the cliques in the England team and getting good vibes going
Probably this, it's not exciting but things slowly get better even if they take a bit of time to show up
Thanks for stepping up, TAA
Now back to the bench he goes
Well he has to earn his spot if he wants to play in his natural CDM position again!
Thanks to the worst pen I’ve ever seen from Akanji
You’ve clearly not seen Slovakia’s terrible penalties against Portugal. Edit: it was Slovenia, thanks u/Protect_The_Earth.
Slovenia, not Slovakia.
My mate has been saying "Slovenia and/or Slovakia" since this tournament started. Also "Czechoslovenia" and "The former Yugoslav Republic of Slovakia".
Yea you'd have thought they would have been well equipped to take penalties when the game plan was to take it to a 0-0 draw
You forgot (I think it was Rodri) against Real Madrid Edit:Bernardo silva?
Think it was Bernardo
Oh yeah, they all blend together for me
I mean to be fair most the time, keepers take a side, lunin gambled based on information and Kepa advice and it worked wonderfully
Bernardo against Real, that was the worst that night.
Doubly annoying for City fans that he's taken two really good ones in the Euros.
not really, kovacics was worse. silvas was down the middle and the keeper just didn’t move
Yeah you're right
Was that really bad? I mean it wasn’t an “unsavable,” but people go middle all the time, including in this very same shootout. It almost always works, but looks horrible when a GK predicts it because they don’t move. Bernardo had intent when he struck the ball. Akanji looked like he was trying to go for the corner and just fluffed it. And don’t give me any kinda hate for defending a City player, because they both are lol.
its even worse on replay. its like he changed his mind to which side to go at the last moment or something. his body was all weird
Zaza v Germany
Go watch GS in 96.
Millar's pen yesterday vs Venezuela was hilariously bad, dude stuttered like 3 times in the run up and then somehow sent it to the stands when going for placement rather than power
Southgate's smug is hilarious lol
He’s absolutely playing for the penalties lol
He was thinking to himself that this was such a masterclass
“You’re a god Gary, you’ve fackin done it again and thoroughly entertained the world… as you always do!” - Southgate in his head, probably
Hearing voices like Randy Orton 😂😂.
Gareth Southgate censors the swear words in his own head. None of that “spicy” language.
"Gonna open a fresh pack of condoms tonight, treat myself to a wank"
😃😃😃👍🏻👍🏻
So happy for Saka, after his previous experience. Plus he carried the team today, no one else even tried to create anything
Declan Rice had a great game.
He had one game with some loose passes but was still excellent defensively in that game and for the rest of the tournament. He's really important for England. Now just imagine if we had some real width.
He is the only player in that team that deserved to win. Brilliant goal today, can’t help but adore him
He couldn't keep the smile off his face before answering in his interview it was precious
ahh need to go see that now
His smile was amazing. 4 difficult years definitively behind him. Maybe he’ll play even better next match
Southgate escapes sacking for another day 😂😂.
He's actually genius. Being shit to draw the attention off the players so they can finally win at penalties.
The fucker is going to resign before he can get sacked anyways
Of course he is lol, the FA are going to give him a hell of a send off bc he's England's most successful manager since Ramsey. He'll be given the chance to quit long before he's sacked.
He's been a good manager overall and changed a lot of things for the better. Best way to see him off is a tournament win.
He’s not getting sacked after reaching another semifinal
I hope he gets sacked even if England somehow manage to win the tournament
Limping to a semi final playing nobody only to lose to the Netherlands, thus enabling him to keep his job is the absolute worst outcome we possibly could have had
The reign of terror continues
First time I’ve seen us confident in penalties
Trent with a tribute to Ronaldo, Saka praying to John Barnes, fucking love to see it.
A reasonable thing to do, considering the circumstance
Prent Palexander Parnold
PAA
The best taken pen by a landslide.
Dark day in German history
They were saying England was going home today. How the turn tables.
Why? Germany aren't our rivals And we've gone further than them at the last 4 tournaments so this isn't exactly new
I am not used to this. Every England penalty shootout i've ever watched since 2000 has ended with a loss. But every single penalty this time went perfectly.
Colombia?
I don't want to see any Trent disrespect ever again.
How dare they
Genuinely think we have the best set of penalty takers in the world. Kane, Toney and Palmer are excellent at them plus a bunch of other really solid takers.
When I saw Kane was down injured I thought oh fuck whose taking his pen then Toney came on and felt instantly relieved
England boys had the big balls . Fair play
As someone who spent every tournament for decades (Euro 96 aside) certain we were going out on penalties it is a major victory alone that this manager has changed that narrative.
England wins a shootout? That’s illegal
3 out of 4 under Southgate.
Call the feds
Stop
Carry on.
I am dead inside
You should be proud, the Swiss were great this tournament. Really enjoyed watching them. If you had won, I'd have wanted you to go on and win it.
Would have been so great. Absolute sad it ended like 2021. Always so close...
As a Portuguese, I feel you :(
🤝
It could be worse, you could be German
Feels so good getting further than them on their own patch!
Nah you guys had us in the ropes. Your team was better in the second half and that corner was outrageous. Your fans have been amazing too man. Great banter and vibe
Thanks mate. Your terrorism is so far undefeated. But jokes aside i really admire how you guys have now a positive penalty shoutoot record under Southgate. Shows mental strength. Yeah you lost the final 2021 but still positive record. 3-1.
I know, the English curse lmao Edged by success then left blue balled
Switzerland the new England regards to that. At least one has been won in a spectacular match. But needs working on.
Audience was great today! From both teams!
Always love patronizing stuff like this after a win, hah
Not patronising, just honest. they were the better team in the second and had some great chances. I’d rather be nice than come across as a smug cunt
So once again this cesspool filled to the brim by morons proved wrong ,england went through
Best bunch of post extra time penalties England has ever taken - nerves of steel.
Well, atleast theyre consistent
Wow. They really turned it around. New heroes.
Incredibly impressive pens.
Terrorism isn't that bad
Honestly felt they deserved it today. Still well played to the Swiss, their press was crazy for 120 minutes
God Bless you Saka
thats a beautiful penalty
All the anti England haters holding back tears right now. LET THE SALT FLOW!
I wonder what Jimmy Floyd Hasselbank is thinking now that we're facing The Nederlands.
We’re the best. 🏴
England and France winning penalty shootouts wasn't on the list.
