In one off games in tournaments they common enough. Thinking back over recent seasons in the Champions League knockout, the only tie I can think of that went to peno's in Liverpool V Chelsea in the '07 semi's.
eh United v Chelsea in the 2008 final....
 
But i agree... can´t see this going to pennos....
That was a one off game dude. I'm reffering to two legged games were away goals count.
Embarrassed yeah i realised that after i sent it....
I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat

Had a look at a few McGeady videos on youtube and I've revised my opinion. I'd back him to score from the spot.
 
With Shane Long out, in the event of a penalty shootout:
 
1. Stephen Hunt
2. Jon Walters
3. Keith Fahey
4. Aiden McGeady
5. Robbie Keane
 
If at least 4 of these players are on the pitch at the end of 120 mins, we could be ok.
Win the toss, opt to shoot into the south stand, and let Estonia go first.
 
 
Sudden Death: 
 
Cox ???
Whelan,
Andrews
Kevin Doyle (ropey).

If the playoff goes to penalties, just looking at who would take them. 

1. Jon Walters (if fit)
2. Robbie Brady
3. Shane Long
4. Seanie Maguire
5. Daryl Murphy (??)
6. James McClean (scored one v Slovakia last year but only just)

If Walters is fit, it's probably not likely that himself Long and Murphy will be on the pitch at the same time.

I'd say Maguire would be brought on to take one, or should be. Has scored 12 penalties in LOI, and 1 for Ireland U21s, and has missed 2. 

Maybe Hendrick next, or Arter, followed by Meyler. 

I think Arter takes the odd penalty, certainly blasted one miles over the bar for Bournemouth a while back. Not sure about Hendrick or Meyler.

Maguire? Confused

Arter would be well up that list in the top 3, considering he would be the best striker of a ball we have in the team in terms of power.

I'd have him ahead of Arter. I've only based it on the stats I posted to support the argument.

I think we could do a lot worse than have him take one.

Brady is probably our best penalty taker. Long and Murphy are both decent. Walters can hit a good penalty but he's very predictable unfortunately.
We're decent enough..

Stephen Ward could probably take a decent pen. He was a striker in his younger days.

Some fullbacks tend to be decent penalty takers. Irwin and Harte scored plenty for us. Finnan scored a beaut against Spain in the World Cup.

I reckon Ward would put his hand up to take one.

Meyler has taken a few for Hull this year, I would think as captain and the type of character he is, he would be a certainty to be in the first 5. 

If Murphy was a starter, he would be unlikely to be on the pitch after 120 minutes. 

McClean would want to take one too, it would be top corner or row Z. 

Brady a definite. 

Maguire or Hogan, if one of them was there, would probably take one. 

Long, with the form he is in, I wouldn't even bet on him hitting the ball, never mind the net. 

Wes, if he was on the pitch, would be in there somewhere too. 

Wonder would Randolph fancy one ?? Something like this would do...............

Once it's not Ian Harte with Kilbane following up the rebound we should be alright.

Yeah Ward would take one I’d say..

Ward
Brady
Walters
Meyler
McClean - he shouldn’t get near one if you ask me but he would rip the head off someone to take one.
