5.8.2. Kicks from the Penalty Mark. Games that remain tied at the end of overtime will be decided by the taking of kicks from the penalty mark using the procedure below. If kicks from the penalty mark are needed to break a tie in standings rather than to decide the winner of a game, the two teams will choose eleven (11) eligible players to participate as if a game had ended with those players on the field.

b. The referee tosses a coin and the team whose captain wins the toss decides whether to take the first or the second kick.

f. If, before both teams have taken five kicks, one has scored more goals that the other could score, even if it were to complete its five kicks, no more kicks are taken.

g. If, after both teams have taken five kicks, both have scored the same number of goals, or have not scored any goals, kicks continue to be taken in the same order until one team has scored a goal more than the other from the same number of kicks.

h. A goalkeeper who is injured while kicks are being taken from the penalty mark and is unable to continue as goalkeeper may be replaced by a named substitute provided his team has not used the maximum number of substitutes permitted under the competition rules.

i. With the exception of the foregoing case, only players who are on the field of play at the end of the match, which includes extra time where appropriate, are allowed to take kicks from the penalty mark.

j. Each kick is taken by a different player and all eligible players must take a kick before any player can take a second kick.

m. All players, except the player taking the kick and the two goalkeepers, must remain within the center circle.

n. The goalkeeper who is the teammate of the kicker must remain on the field of play, outside the penalty area in which the kicks are being taken, on the goal like where it meets the penalty area boundary line.

o. Unless otherwise stated, the relevant Laws of the Game and International F.A. Board Decisions apply when kicks from the penalty mark are being taken.

p. When a team finishes the match with a greater number of players than their opponents, they shall reduce their number to equate with that of their opponents and inform the referee of the name and number of each player excluded. The team captain has this responsibility.

q. Before the start of kicks from the penalty mark, the referee shall ensure that only an equal number of players from each team remain within the center circle and they shall take the kicks.

r. In the event of light failing before the end of the taking of the kicks from the penalty mark, the result shall be decided by the toss of a coin or the drawing of lots.
