A player (Team A) is injured at the end of extra time and unable to continue. Team A has already used its maximum number of substitutes. May Team A exclude the injured player from taking part in the penalties (penalty shoot-out)? What is the correct procedure assuming that both teams have the same number of players on the field?

Question

Accepted Answer

Yes, the injured player may be excluded. Team B must then exclude one player and inform the referee of the name/number of this excluded player.
