Penalty Shootout is a viral online football game played by
thousands of people every day on Facebook.com at http://apps.facebook.com/penalties/.
Each player
takes a turn to choose five kicks and five dives, and then they can
both watch a 'live' video of their shootout in 3D to see who wins.
Players pick a club to represent - there are over 180 teams from
round the world to choose - and their results help both the individual
player and their favourite team to climb up the league tables.
Since its launch in February 2008, over one million shootouts have
been set up online and this number is now accelerating at a rate of
around 30,000 new shootouts every single day.
The game has over 130,000 registered members, a figure which is
also growing rapidly with around 1000 new players signing up every
day.
As well as the ongoing league tables, the first ever Penalty Shootout Knockout Cup competition is set to take place, which will see over 1000 players go head-to-head in a knockout format to see who is crowned champion. To play in the cup, please visit http://www.wooshare.com/penalty_shootout_cup.
