Japan dodging bullets now

 

[Dee-Liem]

Japan really looks gassed in the second extra period.

I hope Japan realizes the advantage in a shootout most likely goes to the Croatians due to experience (although Croatia subbed a couple of their regular shooters).

 

[BB73]

Anybody else driven nuts by the director not showing the above-the-field, behind-the-shooter camera for the live shots on PKs?

edit - they used it!

 

[Dee-Liem]

Nothing like an awful penalty to start things off for Japan. If you looked at his face, he wasn't confident.

 

[Dee-Liem]

As I said, Japan has always been not great at PK's (women's team better).

Going to a shootout is stupid.

 

[AKAK]

Holy shit

 

[AKAK]

Croatia can just walk up snd drill them now

 

[Dee-Liem]

Of the Asian sides I have seen in my life, Korea Republic is the best at taking PK's.

Not that cutesy crap

I'm assuming you're talking about the Croatian miss.

They (CRO) could've drank alcohol in-between Extra Time and the Shootout and still would've won.

 

[Dee-Liem]

I always look at the faces of the shooters.

None of the Japanese shooters looked like they were comfortable. All of them looked like they were terrified.

Croatia keeper is a great guesser

Yes. I am a firm believer that if you're the type of player who takes PKs,. You should have 2 that are your bread and butter, practice those and when the time comes, put your foot through it. Who gives a fuck if he guesses right?

No goalie on Earth was stopping that Bale pk.

Maybe the 6'8 guy just because it would hit his wrist! It was an excellent effort though from Turner
