It should be a goal

I know! What's complicated about it? It's a penalty that went in the fucking net!

Someone should really explain the rules. I'm baffled.

[highlight]I'm pretty sure the rules in a penalty shoot out say that as soon as the ball starts to travel away from the goal (ie back off the woodwork) it becomes 'dead'.[/highlight] Therefore no goal.

Although as it continued to travel and didn't stop moving I personally think it should stand

Really? What if it hits the post or bar, hits the keeper on the back of the head and goes in?

I'm not having that.

it didn't hit the keeper though did it, therefore as soon as it rebounded away from the goal it became a dead ball.

like i said in my first post, i disagree with the rule and I believe the ball should be dead when it stops moving or it leaves the field of play, but I don't make the rules.

for those of you who dont know, the goal stood and the team who scored the last pen went up, hope that clears it up

I know it didn't. Still, the ball would have to travel away from the post to hit the keeper on the back of the head, wouldn't it?
