Cracking the Penalty Code

Football experts keep preaching that
practicing penalty kicks is a waste of time. Cracking the Penalty Code offers a groundbreaking approach to finally win shootouts at major tournaments.

Football experts in England and the Netherlands keep preaching that
practicing penalty kicks is a waste of time. To them, shootouts are
nothing more than a ‘lottery’. Be that as it may, winning a World Cup
or European Championship has become almost impossible without
surviving at least one penalty shootout. There is compelling evidence
that teams perform significantly better when they practice correctly.

Vergouw offers a groundbreaking new approach to solving important
questions surrounding the penalty shootout. He believes The Three
Lions will benefit from this publication and he hopes they win their
first trophy since 1966. It goes without saying, after taking perfect
penalties.

George Vergouw was the first author to publish a book on big data in
football in his internationally acclaimed book De Strafschop. He wrote
Cracking the Penalty Code especially for English and Dutch football
professionals and fans.
