The European Union of Football Associations (UEFA) at the 2017 European Football Championships among boys and girls no older than 17 years in the Czech Republic and Croatia will test the new system for breaking through the post -match foam, the portal Squawka.com reports.
According to statistics, a team that begins a series of alternate blows of the first has a 60 percent chance of victory thanks to the psychological pressure provided to the second team.
The new system for breaking through the post -match penalty, which received the code name ABBA, is aimed at correcting this situation.
Opponents will apply two blows at once. The command A will carry out the first blow, then the second and third - the team B, the fourth and fifth - again A and so on. Thus, the rivals will be in equal terms: each of them will have the opportunity to beat both first and second in turn.
In total, the number of blows will remain the same - five each. The sequence of penetration will be established by tossing the coin.
It is possible that soon, according to this scheme, a penalty shootout will be held at the main football competitions of the Old World.
