Determining the winner of a match

[Tom Bishop]

Im guessing it depends on the league's previously outlined rules, but one a penalty shoot out goes to sudden death, and all players have taken a kick, how do you decide the winner of the match? Maybe a naive question, but interested. Thanks

It just keeps going, players who have already taken kicks can now take another one.

Sure they're allowed to change the order though?

 

[AlexF]

Yes. Second go around can change up the order, so #11 can shoot as #12.

It doesn't depend on league rules, it depends on the Laws of the Game. As others have mentioned, these tell us that kicks continue, with the same players taking a second kick (or even a 3rd, 4th etc if necessary).

Extracts from the LotG as follows:

• If [...] the scores are level kicks continue until one team has scored a goal more than the other from the same number of kicks
• Each kick is taken by a different player and all eligible players must take a kick before any player can take a second kick
• The above principle continues for any subsequent sequence of kicks but a team may change the order of kickers
