Abstract

In this research work the author consider only those cases of football matches for which the penalty shootout is a method for determining a winner, otherwise that would have been drawn or tied after 90 minutes of play. The existing method of penalty shootout is having a lot of criticisms due to its huge demerits. In this research work the author proposes an improved method to FIFA to select the winner by a continuous soft-computing evaluation method. The method is called by CESFM which is basically a fuzzy constructive method. But CESFM does not exclude five penalty kicks by each team as followed presently after 90 minutes of play. The result of five penalty kicks is one of the many components in the method of CESFM. This proposed fuzzy method can easily extract the real dominant team out of the two tied teams using a software called by CESFM-software with inputs from the Referee where some inputs are given by the Referee using his fuzzy pocket machines M. It is claimed that if FIFA implement this method of CESFM in World Cup Football, it will be a true justice to the football world, to the fans, to the players, to the teams (in particular to the looser team) and consequently it will give enormous justice to the ‘football’ if considered as a subject. CESFM is not to be applicable if the football game ends after 90 minutes with a result (not draw).
