A non-league cup match has equalled the record for the longest penalty shootout in English football. Taunton finally won the shootout 12-11 when Jack Rice netted their 17th penalty to send his side through. "Thirty-four minutes, 34 penalties and then I had to rebuild the penalty spot afterwards. The world record at a professional level was established in 2005 when a Namibian Cup tie was settled after 48 spot-kicks. Their next fixture is a friendly with Bideford on Tuesday and a relieved Sturmey added: "There's definitely not going to be a penalty shootout."
