Penalties are the Russian Roulette of football. Whilst winning a shootout is more about luck and not an overall representation of skill, being victorious in one will still bring you a feeling of triumph.

In England, penalty shootouts are nearly always associated with despair. So much so that actually winning one seems about as likely as Mourinho going out for a friendly glass of wine with Arsene Wenger. However, FIFA 17 is an escape from the real world, and penalty shootout dreams can come true.

Granted, it is pretty much just a lucky dip, but in the knowledge that you are lucky and that your opponent is not, will bring you bliss - the FIFA god's are looking down upon you after all.
