Its kinda understandable in that situation because no matter how good you are, there is still so much pressure in penalty shootout especially when you are a young player playing in an away game so placing Modric as 1st taker seems more logical.
Choosing Modric was a no brainer given his experience, but I always tremble when I see him shooting a penalty for out national team, which for example is a total opposite when I see Kramaric.
He is getting older and penalties are always a lottery
They are a lottery if you are indecisive and don't know what you are doing. Speaking of the guys that knew what they were doing, I enjoyed Shearer's no nonse approach.
Yeah, it was probably just beginner's luck. But that's OK. I don't mind competing in division 2 in the next season.
Chin up! Still plenty of time for you to avoid relegation, we are only at the half of the season.
