A strange little side quest
A small trivia drop for Super Soccer Star: The first penalty shoot-out in World Cup history came in the 1982 semi-final between West Germany and France. And the history keeps stacking up: Basketball became an Olympic medal sport in 1936, while women’s basketball joined the Olympic programme in 1976. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Super Soccer Star feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
