Sorry I was wrong about penalty shootouts for England. As iadom said. England have had 5 shootouts since 1990 in World and European championships. Only 1 have we won. That was in 1996 Euro champions.Against Spain. We won 4-2 on penalties. That was the only time. Lost all the others. 1 out of 5. Not good enough. By the way, the following match after Spain in the Euro 96 was with Germany. We lost on penalties. So as I said we are not good enough. Mind you I still support them. It's just that I can't see them winning a world cup again or indeed a euro cup for the 1st time unless they do some drastic changes of playing style and training.
