We have been involved in 4 FA Cup ties which have gone to kicks from the penalty spot and interestingly we have won all 4 by the same score 3-1

That’s quite astonishing. 3-1 isn’t one of the more statistically likely scorelines. Odds on four in a row must be thousands to one.

That’s quite astonishing. 3-1 isn’t one of the more statistically likely scorelines. Odds on four in a row must be thousands to one.

The first one was a replay away to Lewes in 2000/01, when Les Cleevely saved 3 of their kicks. The next was a replay at home to Godalming when people were making an awful high pitched noise behind the goal while jumping up and down to put off their kickers. I think Phil Wilson saved the first one and the second cleared the crossbar by yards on its way into the carpark. I recall Phil turning around to watch it's path and, as he glimpsed the mayhem behind him, he doubled up with laughter. The other two were away to Corinthian Casuals and Christchurch during the weird lockdown season with restricted attendances.

I couldn’t find a database of penalty shootout scores. But this page had all those at World Cup finals. Of the 36, 3 finished 3-1.

List of FIFA World Cup penalty shoot-outs - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

From that the chance of four successive 3-1s is 0.00482%!

Or roughly as likely at Whiteleafe were to score a goal yesterday.
