A strange little side quest
If Asian Cup Soccer sends you down a curiosity rabbit hole, start here. The penalty kick entered football's laws in 1891 and was nicknamed the 'kick of death' in its early days. It also connects to a different milestone: Archery was already on the Olympic programme in 1900, boxing joined the modern Games in 1904, and basketball became a medal sport in 1936. The screen is modern; the urge to test skill, pattern and timing definitely is not.
