Thanks fella!

And the last game of the 16 team knock out stage sees : Irish Saint 0 v 0 Maximus Decimus (Irish Saint 3 v 4 Maximus Decimus after penalties)

Some pretty ordinary penalties but the Swiss prevail.

That's the way to take a penalty, hit it as hard as you can.

Penalty shoot out here we come! Can both teams even make this look a dreadful spectacle, I wonder...
