About Penalty Shootout
One ball, one goal and a match on the line. Penalty Shootout turns a football shootout into a compact precision game. Choose one of six targets and stop the moving marker near the bright centre. A perfect strike beats the keeper; poor timing can send the ball wide. On the next turn you defend. Read the body-language hint, choose where to dive and time your move. The hint is useful, but it can be wrong. Each side takes up to five initial kicks. The match ends early if the score cannot be caught. A level score moves into paired sudden-death kicks, with an arcade limit of ten attempts per side before a draw. You always shoot first. This is an arcade adaptation rather than a complete football simulation. Rookie, Club and Elite change the challenge, while training gives you ten shots without defending. The daily challenge uses the same UTC date and Club setup for everyone. Use a mouse, keyboard or touch buttons. Pause whenever needed, adjust the sound and choose reduced motion. Local saves let you continue after reloading when browser storage is available. No account is required to play. Personal records stay in this browser; global rankings are currently disabled.
