The goal of this research is to discover and analyze the technical-tactical patterns of the attacker and the goalkeeper in the penalty shootouts (n=121) within the LaLiga during the 2016-17 season. For the realization of this study the following analyzes were performed: descriptive and chi-square with the SPPS, calculation of T-Patterns with the Theme and polar coordinates with the HOISAN The results show a tendency of the shooters where they don't perform any movements before taking the shot, while the goalkeepers tend to perform different movements, although their behavior is different for the right-handed and left-handed players. Most of the shooters choose a long run. Half of the time, the goalkeeper stops the shot; he does it illegally because it anticipates the shoot from the shooter.

Keywords : Shootout; football; technical-tactical pattern; observational methodology.
