While I don’t think it was necessarily relevant to the way this match played out, given our outfield players were literally perfect with their penalties and De Gea never looked even close to saving one of theirs, it’s well-established that you should never willingly choose to go 2nd. But who’s to say they would have been equally perfect with their penalties with the added pressure of having to score to stay in the tie?
It‘s a decision that defies basic logic and I don’t know why it was even a choice for Bruno to make; if we have the option of going 1st we should go 1st every single time because it’s statistically advantageous.
It’s comparable to choosing to be the black pieces in chess in a one off match.
