The 2026 World Cup edition witnessed many notable phenomena related to penalty kicks, with a total of 360 penalties taken across 39 matches since the system's adoption in 1982. Among the most prominent events were the first match since 1994 to be decided by penalties, incidents such as missing five penalties in two different matches, and an instance where a goalkeeper was substituted specifically for penalty shootouts. Argentina remains the most successful team, winning 6 out of 7 matches decided by penalties, while Croatia maintained an undefeated record, and Germany experienced its first missed penalty in World Cup history. The numbers also indicate a lead for left-footed players and show variations in success rates depending on the shooting position, with some goalkeepers being brought on specifically to participate in penalty shootouts in certain cases.
