WTF. How did it decide the winner? Cup results displays 127 - 127 (I gave up clicking at 148-148).

Somewhat surprisingly there was a result. 

It finished with Fedosov missing the 743rd penalty and then Belamiche scoring, so the final result was:

LA Galaxy NPL U21 371/372 ✡Anubis✡ U21 372/372

The match went on for a total of 864 minutes, or 14 hours and 24 minutes. 

You have to feel for Fedosov. He must be gutted. :D

The match is over. ✡Anubis✡ won!

864.  A perfectly executed penalty by Belamiche (4)! Postoyan (12) doesn't stand a chance.

863.  Fedosov (7) shoots a very weak penalty. This is easy for Tolbert (1).

For the record, here's a copy of the whole penalty shoot-out. 

(Cancelled it won't let me post that much in one go.) 

Let me know if anyone wants this as it would probably take about 5 separate posts.

Feodosov took every penalty from his team's 71st onwards.  I think that means he took 311 accurate penalties before finally missing at the 312th attempt.  It's hardly a surprise - imagine how knackered he'd be after 12 hours 24 minutes of penalties alone!

Belamiche took most of the opposition's penalties from the 72nd onwards, but Ingidayehu took some as well; Belamiche scored 217 of theirs and Ingidayehu 105.

Maybe the keepers went for a long bit of kip and Tolbert woke up first?

Can't say I blame Vincent for not testing the order of penalty takers for that many attempts ;-)

Hats off to you for clicking through that lot Numpty lol.

Yeah, the order of penalty takers seemed rather strange. 

No clicking @DT, I just left it on fast play for about 10 minutes.

This reminds me of watching the Isner vs Mahut tennis match at Wimbledon some years ago. I think the final set ended up in the 70s, although I might check that later.

Lasted for 11 hrs, 5 minutes too, so even that record is shattered.

Nothing comes close to the "timeless test" though....
