This has been discussed many times before at WP:FOOTY, and the consensus has always been to record them as draws. That reflects what the score was at the end of the match. FIFA have explicitly stated when calculating their world rankings that "To ensure that the formula is not only fair but also simple, matches that are decided by a penalty shoot-out (which are considered draws under normal rules) result in the winning team receiving two points and the losing team one point."

Scotland won the game. Absolutely baffling that I have been unable to amend the result to say just that. Craig5991 ( talk) 08:57, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
A penalty shootout isn’t part of the normal game? It’s a method used at the end of every match that cannot be separated after 120 minutes to identify a victor. Who progressed to the final? Scotland. Did Israel achieve anything on Thursday night? Did they make it to a final? No. They didn’t. Because they lost the match in a normal set of circumstances.

I’ll continue to let you edit pages as you see fit, but it’s clear you knowledge of football is substandard and rather than being directly involved in the sport you sit back in your armchairs to judge. It’s disappointing because it doesn’t reflect true statistics, but if you want to feel high and powerful over a wiki page, then so be it. Craig5991 ( talk) 09:01, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
It’s not “my view” it’s a general view. They do say don’t believe everything you read on Wikipedia. This is a prime example. Scotland won the game. That’s not a view. That’s a fact. Craig5991 ( talk) 09:30, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
Don’t get smart with me “talking to a brick wall”. Believe me the feeling is very much mutual. The Scottish League Cup is an incredibly unique system and personally a silly one.
By your logic, if a match in a Champions League, World Cup or even Play Off semi final goes to penalties, no matter who wins the teams should both progress or share the trophy, because it was a draw?
Penalties are a method used to determine the winner of a tie. That’s fact. You can’t hide away from that. So this brick wall stands firm and you can take your cheek and jog on. You can all agree with each other if you like. I happily admit when I’m wrong, you don’t know me. But on this occasion, I’m 110% correct. Craig5991 ( talk) 09:56, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
No bother troops, next time I see a penalty shootout about to start I’ll just turn the telly off and go to bed early, because I know the outcome of that match was a draw. Thanks a lot, really helped open my eyes there. I now understand football much better than I did before! Craig5991 ( talk) 10:09, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
If a cup final finishes after 120 minutes as a draw, and the team who win a penalty shootout win the trophy, they’ve won. That’s it. Finished. You can bring up FIFA all you like, but it’s fact. End of. Period. Done. Craig5991 ( talk) 11:41, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
