Any idea why this failed? I never watched much of the US league but always enjoyed these shoot-outs.

Much less random than pens.

Apparently, the American fans couldn't concentrate long enough for the time it took to run from the centre-circle to the goal so they reverted to the standard format.

They probably stuck an ad break just before they reached the 18 yard line.

I was living in Canada in 1982 and during a Northern Ireland game with them on the attack, cut to an add break and missed the goal. Not only that, on returning to the game after the add, lazily announced Northern Ireland had scored and never even showed a reply.

Bizarre.

Toronto Blizzard had a cool strip though

Penalty takers should be blindfolded.

Or make it like subbuteo penalties. One from the spot. Two from the corners of the 18 yard box. 2 from further out.

Typical! Okay penalties before the game so one team knows they are going out if they don't win.

The captain of a team should choose all opposing teams penalty takers.
