Tied games after the group stage in the World Cup tournament are settled with a penalty shootout, with the two teams alternating turns taking penalty kicks. The data give the outcome of each penalty kick by kick order (for up to 5 kicks) of each penalty shootout between 1978 and 2018. Kick order = 1 represents the first penalty kick of the shootout for the either team, kick order = 2 represents the second penalty kick of the shootout for either team, etc.
