It may be a 2nd League, but tension is high!

Classic penalty

The easiest way of using a penalty is, of course, a strong kick into one of the corners. In order to shoot at the enemy goalpost, press the shot button while making sure that the marker ends up as close to the green field in the lower left corner as possible. Try shooting possibly close to the post and make it strong - even if the goalkeeper predicts your intentions, a precise strong shot will be much harder to defend.

Finesse penalty

A finesse penalty is delicate, but at the same time very precise, and with the proper rotation it can spectacularly avoid the goalkeeper's glove. Such a shot is particularly effective when you try to shoot the ball at one of the upper corners. To perform such a shot, press the finesse and shot button.

Panenka chip shot

An Antonin Panenka inspired penalty shot is a great way to humiliate your enemy by fooling him into jumping into one corner, while you calmly shoot right in the middle. In order to perform a chip shot, press the modifier and the shot button. Remember that it is a very risky technique, but at the same time very flashy.

Feint penalty

Feinting when running towards the ball is a great way of tricking the goalkeeper - as your player is running, he suddenly stops for a moment, takes another look and then shoots the ball, thus performing the shot "in stages". In order to feint, press the shot button when running. Note that while doing this you need to be extra careful to give a precise shot, and it is much easier to miss the goal!
