OK no -one going to get it, or no one cares  ;D ;D

Answer for Eliteomegaman is.......

Their football teams all have a 100% record in penalty shoot-outs  :y

(England's is 17%, Holland, surprisingly is only 20%, Germany 83% Scotland have never progressed beyond the group stages in any competition and therefore have never been involved in penalties  ;))

actually, I was looking into facts behind Germany's penalty shoot out dominance - and since Czechoslovakia (who've never lost one) beat them in the 1976 euros they have never been beaten, in fact Germany haven't so much as missed a penalty in a shoot-out since 1982...and even that was on target - it was the French keeper who saved it!!
Basically, all Germany need to do is draw...and they've won  ;D
