jere_d Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I'm in my third season and i've only won 1 penalty shoot out out of about 5 or 6. I don't know why but alot of my penalties get saved in both shoot and game time I had one striker miss 4 in 1 game was on a hatrick but subbed him after the forth save. So does anyone have any tips?

Siobri Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Buy players who are good at penalties? You're not managing Tottenham are you? If so, it's probably hard-coded into the game and you can't do anything about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNT3R Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Let your more composed players take them, both in overall (attribute) composure and in body language in-game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark1985 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 LA Lakers have lost 7 out of 8 shootouts so far this season, and England are pretty useless too... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Neil Brock Posted January 29, 2015 Administrators Share Posted January 29, 2015 At least you didn't lose by drawing lots - http://www.theguardian.com/football/live/2015/jan/29/africa-cup-of-nations-2015-guinea-and-mali-draw-lots-live And what HUNT3R said is good advice too.

FrazT Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 As you near the end of extra time and a shoot out is looming, have a look at the subs bench and see if there is a fresh good penalty taker who you can bring on after 119 minutes. Think carefully about who you sub during extra time. Before a penalty shoot out, pause the game and redo your order of takers. Look at the attributes for penalties, finishing and composure, but also look at anyone who is having a very good game and so will be confident. Be wary of a player who is exhausted and you dont always have to put you best penalty taker first in the list. Positions 3 and 4 are important and I often put my captain in the list towards the end, even though his attributes are not outstanding. I would say that I have a 90% success rate over a career save doing this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did this happen in a competitive game? My understanding is that it shouldn't happen in a competitive game, especially considering the scores were close/level. If it was 5-0 to you, it would have been okay.If you don't mind, log it as a bug and upload the PKM. That way it will get looked at by the SI team.

deathspawn666 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Yh I'm still getting this in FM most players usually miss their next goal chance after scoring 2 goals. same for penalties. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jere_d Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 nahhh i see a lot of saves when players are on two goals Thanks for the advice it seems like composure is the most valuable asset when taking penalties Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenzar Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I always just list the players I have in order of penalty taking, using composure and finishing to break ties. This probably wins me about half - though it's been a while since I've been in one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
