Sepp Blatter Seeks Penalty Solution

FIFA president Sepp Blatter has labelled penalty shoot-outs ‘a tragedy’ and challenged Franz Beckenbauer to come up with an alternative.

The UEFA Champions League final was decided on penalties for the fifth time since 2001 when Chelsea beat Bayern Munich last weekend.

It has prompted Blatter to call for a better solution to decide matches.

Blatter told the FIFA Congress in Budapest: “Football can be a tragedy when you go to penalty kicks. Football should not go to one to one, when it goes to penalty kicks football loses its essence.  “Perhaps Franz Beckenbauer with his football 2014 group can show us a solution perhaps not today but in the future.”

Beckenbauer is head of the Football Task Force 2014 which has been charged with recommending rule changes in the game.
