It would be a really cool thing to do in a game but at the same time, not something I would ever consider -especially if the game was a close one.

The PK in the clip leaves a large margin for error versus just taking a 'normal' PK. A Penalty Kick is really an easy goal; twelve yards away from an eight-yard wide goal. A straight kick in either side of the net is an almost guaranteed goal. In my opinion, in a close game situation, the 'guaranteed' goal would be preferred over the fancy, 'not-so-guaranteed' shot on goal.
