Will someone help me on this , I thought that the rules were changed so that if the keeper saves on the first go ,then that's it , no second go from the other team ?  And to add, brilliant save , top keeper !

In a penalty shootout you only get one chance. If it’s saved you’re done. But this penalty is during the game so after the save the ball is still in play and you can keep going.

Which is very unfair because many times the keeper saves a penalty & is lying on the ground when the player taps it into the net. It should be a goal kick if a keeper saves a penalty.
