Former England manager Neville highlighted the importance of technical skill when it comes to penalty shootouts, emphasizing the need for players who can execute precise shots. In contrast to past approaches, current manager Southgate has adopted a methodical and professional strategy for penalty preparation. With input from experts like Chris Markham and coach Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, the team has focused on specific techniques such as run-up steps, breathing, and aiming strategies. Goalkeepers like Henderson, Ramsdale, and Heaton have also played a vital role in practice sessions, ensuring that players are well-prepared to handle the pressure of crucial moments. Thanks to this dedicated approach, England now enters penalty shootouts with confidence and a clear edge over opponents, demonstrating that thorough preparation and teamwork are essential for success in high-pressure situations.
