when do world cup games go to penalty kicks
Penalty shoot-out (association football) A draw is a common result in football. Shoot-outs are only used in competitions that require a match-winner at the end of the game[1] – this is predominantly in knockout "cup" ties, as opposed to round-robin "leagues"; they decide which team progresses to the next round of a tournament, or win it. Usually extra time has been played first, but this is not necessary;[1] exceptions include the Copa Libertadores, Copa América (quarter-finals and semi-finals only), FA Community Shield and the Football League Trophy, all of which use shoot-outs straight after the end of normal time. Exceptionally, a shoot-out after a league or round-robin match may be provided for. This provision appears for occasions where opposing teams in a final-day match finish the group with identical records, which can result in an immediate shoot-out. This happened in Group A of the 2003 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship.[5] This rule is a recent innovation, and for example did not apply in Group F of the 1990 World Cup, where the Republic of Ireland and the Netherlands were separated by drawing of lots immediately after finishing their final-day match in a draw.[6]
2018 FIFA World Cup The draw was held on 1 December 2017 at 18:00 MSK at the State Kremlin Palace in Moscow.[32][33] The 32 teams were drawn into 8 groups of 4, by selecting one team from each of the 4 ranked pots.
