This is fucking Madness.
RUBBERMAN
The vast majority of penalties are not perfectly taken - FACT
Penalties which are not perfectly taken can go in - FACT
If the goalkeeper knows which direction a penalty is going in, he will have a good chance of saving it if it is not perfectly taken - FACT
If a goalkeeper goes the wrong way, he will have a very low chance of saving the penalty, perfectly taken or not - FACT
Therefore it is of benefit to the goalkeeper to know where the penalty is going, and so penalty takers who are easier to read would score less penalties.
Left Footed players do not score less penalties proportionately.
Therefore they are not easier to read.
This should be an end to it
