Note: The options listed are in order of priority from left to right.

Euro 2024 Group A Predicted Penalty and Set Piece Takers

Germany

Penalty taker: Gundogan/Havertz, Fulkrug
Set Piece Taker – Freekicks: Kroos, Kimmich
Set Piece Taker – Corners: Kroos, Sane

Havertz took the penalty in the first game vs Scotland. But it is to be noted that, Gundogan won that penalty and was slightly injured in the process. So it still a 50/50 call.

Scotland

Penalty taker: McGinn
Set Piece Taker – Freekicks: McTominay, Robertson, McGinn
Set Piece Taker – Corners: McGinn, McTominay, Robertson

Hungary

Penalty taker: Dominik Szoboszlai
Set Piece Taker – Freekicks: Dominik Szoboszlai, Sallai
Set Piece Taker – Corners: Dominik Szoboszlai, Sallai

Dominik Szoboszlai took the last penalty for Hungary in their friendly against Turkey in March, 2024. Szoboszlai is also a no-brainer for all set pieces for Hungary with 34 corners, 12 shots from direct free kicks, 18 in-direct free kicks from just 8 games during the qualifiers.

Switzerland

Penalty taker: Shaqiri, Xhaka, Rodriguez
Set Piece Taker – Freekicks: Shaqiri, Vargas, Xhaka, Rodriguez
Set Piece Taker – Corners: Shaqiri, Vargas, Reider, Rodriguez

In Switzerland’s friendly against Estonia Shaqiri took the penalty & converted, he’s now taken the last two penalties for Switzerland which should make him the 1st choice. He also has a 15/16 penalty record for both club and country in his career so far. Shaqiri missed the first game vs Hungary as he was not fit. If he is on the pitch, he will dominate the set pieces. Else it will be Vargas as seen in the first game vs Hungary.

Italy coach Spaletti mentioned in the press conference during November 2023 that- “We have other penalty specialists too and perhaps it would make things difficult for him(Jorginho) if we sent him back to the spot the way I did in the press conference the other day. We are evaluating other situations too, let’s say.”
