    I dont think they are, would be the same if any teams star penalty taker. Imagine Italy sent up Bonucci and Barzagli before Pirlo who was to take the 5th and they got knocked out? would be the exact same same if Sweden sent up Mellberg and Granqvist before Ibrahimovic.

    When your teams not got enough penalty takers and your good at them then you should go up first. You could tell for example Alves didnt want to take one, he was that nervous he went up at the wrong time.

    Ronaldo bottled it. If he stepped up a scored the first penalty it could have been a different story and Ronaldo could have been in a better position to challenge Messi for the Ballon D'or
