[QUOTE="JogginFrog, post: 3230536, member: 4994"] Before the Morocco-Spain shootout, Morocco won the coin toss for kick order and elected to go first. Announcer said that teams that kick first are more likely to win shootouts. Why is that? Edit: My guess is that because a majority of PKs are successful, kicking second more often means that you are playing from behind, which ratchets up the pressure even more and causes kickers to make mistakes.
