Blunder regarding penalty shootout

[edit]

Here is a mistake hidden, somewhere:

Penalty shootout
Mexico 4 - 3 Ecuador
Hernández: goal 1-1 Montaño: goal
Suárez: goal 2-1 Capurro: saved by Ríos
Blanco: saved by Ibarra 2-1 De la Cruz: saved by Ríos
Chávez: goal 3-2 Graziani: goal
Sánchez: goal 4-3 Rosero: saved by Ríos

My guess, without knowing at all, is that one Ecuadorian penalty goal (supposedly Rosero's) mistakenly has been called as a miss. Or is the mistake of some different kind? 83.252.242.5 (talk) 23:12, 28 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Now, this has been corrected to another version, see below, where the shootout ended 4-2, but I must say I doubt this version as well. Here, the tenth and last penalty was laid although Mexico was at that time already the clear winner. That's not how penalty shootouts are organized. So, somewhere there probably still is a mistake hidden. 83.252.208.50 (talk) 13:26, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
