Abolish penalty shoot-outs, Cameron jokes in Germany

BERLIN (Reuters) - FIFA should not only do away with Sepp Blatter but put an end to penalty shoot-outs as well, British Prime Minister David Cameron joked on Friday at a news conference in Berlin with Germany's Angela Merkel.

After telling a news conference that the FIFA president should step aside over allegations of corruption in football's world governing body, Cameron offered a self-deprecating joke about England's penalty shoot-out trauma in big tournaments, where they almost always lose -- and often to Germany.
