True, but then it wasn't a winning strategy because they didn't reach the final either.
In 90 minutes a well-organised side can put away quite a few goals. When you leave it to penalties it becomes sudden death with all the extra stress that comes with it and it's at a time when you are already tired from the game and the extra time.
