From a game theory perspective, some (very low) percentage of your penalty shots should be panenkas. If you’re not doing it at all, the keeper can always dive one direction and have a higher save rate.

No they shouldn't. There should be powerful shots down the middle but no panenkas.

No. GK can save with foot if you shoot it low down the middle

Don't shoot it low.

Game theory never agrees with trying a penenka.
