VIDEO: Here’s why everyone is talking about an U14 penalty shoot-out

Goal or no goal

That’s some child’s day really ruined.

Penalty shoot outs should be simple enough to figure out. Five spot-kicks and if level after that, then sudden death.

Simple, so simple in fact that an U14 kid could figure it out.

Only it seems that one child forgot about a golden rule in penalty shootouts-don’t let the ball into the net… ever.

This footage seems to be sweeping the internet and on the day of Ireland’s Euro Qualifier at the Aviva, we thought we’d bring you the reason why this spot-kick shootout is going viral for all the wrong reasons from a youth game in Scotland

Should the goal have stood?

It reminded us of this epic shoot-out fail from five years ago
