If the keeper saves a penalty awarded during the match, the game should resume with a goal kick.
Discuss.

Should that be extended to free kicks as well? If it doesn't leave the confines of the pitch, it's in play, so that match goes on.
Of course it would've denied Bayern a goal tonight, and that would have been A Good Thing, but in seriousness, I disagree.

As I goalkeeper, I agree.
Bloody slack-arse fullbacks who can't be bothered to trot into the area and boot it over the stand.
And even if that happens, don't dare try and hug me or pat me on the head - I'll put my stern face on start pointing - we've a bloody corner to defend!

Why would we change a fundamental rule that the ball is in play unless it leaves the pitch or an offence has occurred? It's madness.
Just enforce the encroachment rule on penalties properly.

FIFA would never introduce a rule change that would reduce goalscoring opportunities...they are more interested in increasing them.

How about, if the keeper saves it or it comes back off the post/bar, only the goalkeeper is allowed to touch the ball until it goes outside the penalty box or out of play?

Or: The only two players allowed into the penalty box at all, until the ball exits it, are the keeper and the penalty taker.

Nah, that's rubbish. The rule is fine as it stands.

OR you don't use a ball for penalties, just trivia. Like at the end of Weakest Link.

Ever since the technology has been available, football will always be and always has been the poorer for having never introduced the sensational multiball rule.

What is this madness? What's wrong with the rule as it is? Why does it need tinkering with? I don't get it.
This is a solution without a problem. Worse, it's a solution that would make a non-problem worse.

I agree that there's no need to tamper with the rules, if it ain't broken etc, but I must say that ad hoc's suggestion is a really really good one.

How about: if a goalie saves a penalty but is unable to hold onto it, the ref shouts "BUNDLE" and there's a free-for-all. Last man standing wins?

As a defender, I think the penalty kick is way too harsh a punishment most of the time anyway. That the taker can have his kick saved and then have another bite at the cherry, well, it's just shit.

As a goalkeeper I'd be tempted by your solution but there is as much skill involved in getting a penalty save safe as there is in just saving it. Having your defence on their toes for a rebound should be part of your job too.
