Germany-Italy decided the penalties? Any student of international football the past few decades would, in principle, favoritism to the Germans, great specialists in this tiebreaker formula – unlike the Italians. The course of events confirmed the tradition, but with interesting nuances: for the first time since 1976, the German machine gave signs of vulnerability in the mark of 11 meters. And it allowed to call to mind that there is another European team with the best record than Germany: in addition to never having lost in the three tie-breaker in which he participated, never saw a your player fails a shot. You know what? The answer is more below, but first a little history.
46 years to spoil nails
Officially approved by the Board International meeting in June 1970 after the World Cup in Mexico, the tie by kicks from the penalty mark began to become familiar to football fans this season 1970/71, when it began to be used to decide qualifiers in European competition of clubs.
in September 1970 gave the premiere Cup Winners’ Cup (with Hungary’s Honved to depart from the Scottish Aberdeen) and in November took place the baptism in the Champions Cup: after two draws at 1-1, Borussia Moenchengladbach (Germany) and Everton (England) have used the new system to decide the passage to the quarter finals. Strange as it now may seem, the British won the Germans.
The first tie in the Champions Cup
If the European clubs the entry tests into force the tiebreaker system was almost immediate, as with regard to large selections of competitions, it was not until the European 1976 for a new form of drama came to audiences around the world. Also because the premiere took place in the most important game of all – the final between Germany and Czechoslovakia. . And again the Germans left to lose
We will not recapitulate now the saga of Panenka – it has been done here , the subject of 40 years of achievement – it, yes , to remember that, from there to here, Germany has not returned to be outdone in a tie like this: with clearance before Italy on Saturday, are 40 years of consecutive hits with six establishments that leave the Germans at the top of European effectiveness
from Hoeness Schweinsteiger, exceptions to the rule
the accounts are easy to make:. from that tie held on June 20, 1976 between final stages of the European Championships and there were 41 World offs involving European teams. Germany is by far the team with the most wins (6 row). However, the tie Saturday brought an interesting novelty: three German players (Müller, Özil and Schweinsteiger) failed his shot, more than had happened 1976 here – just Hoeness in Euro 1976 and Stielike in the World 1982 , had failed, a total of 28 shots. Thus, if the German efficiency in clearance remains high, as his shot efficiency dropped from 93% to 86% by the Bordeaux game.
In the group of 21 European teams who have gone through this type of decision there is one that surpasses Germany at all levels, whether in the clearance efficiency both in shot accuracy: Czechoslovakia / Czech Rep. Czech, both in an integrated manner (1976 and 1980) and after the separation of Slovakia (as Czech Rep. In 1996) not only won the three decisions in which he participated as not missed a single one of the 20 shots attempted by their players.
Portugal with good performance
it should be noted, however, that Portugal is particularly well placed in this table with three wins in four, although the effectiveness of shot is not the highest: the four-offs that took part in the final stages, Portugal spent three and lost one, having converted 16 of 21 shots (76% efficiency). As has been analyzed after the clearance against Poland, was the first time that the Portuguese players have scored five, with Cristiano Ronaldo to participate in its third tiebreaker, converting as many shots – the only one that stood out was the elimination against Spain in the semi-final of 2012: it was to last, previous failures left him out
it should be recalled. to conclude that Britain is by far the worst selection of use in this type of situation with six eliminations in seven attempts, and a shot of efficiency of 66%. Little better are two giants of European football, Italy (69% shot, only 3 clearings 9) and the Netherlands (68%, two memoranda 7).
