So you would rather make a substitution were a player who is going to take 1 penalty than the keeper who will face probably 5 kicks ?
I dont think its as daft an idea as people are making out, anyone who disagrees watch the F.A cup final again.
Casillas is a great keeper but Reina is fantastic when it comes to penalties.

By that time the maximum 3 subs would be used. Playing extra time has a fairly high rate of attrition particularly in the big tournies.
