  • been thinking about this some more. who takes the 12th penalty? do they go round again in same order or can the pack be shuffled?

    It can be shuffled.

    Caveat Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penalty_shoot-out_(association_football)

    "18. If it becomes necessary for players to take another kick (because the score has remained equal after all eligible players have taken their first kick), players are not required to kick in the same order"

    There's also lots of quirks about what happens if one team is down to 10 (or fewer) players before the kicks take place, or during the shootout itself, (generally the team with more players have to nominate the appropriate number of players not to take a first kick to make it even).
