About This Trend

Elfmeter is the German term for penalty in football (soccer), referring to a penalty kick awarded when a foul occurs inside the penalty area.

The term is trending due to recent controversial penalty decisions in high-profile football matches, including a disputed Elfmeter call in the FC Augsburg vs. TSG Hoffenheim game and discussions around penalty shootouts in international competitions like the Nations League.
