Which of these teams has the worst World Cup finals record in penalty shoot outs?
a) Scotland
b) England
c) Holland
The sources HERE & HERE suggest that England has the worst World Cup record with regards to penalties but this is in general and does not relate to the "finals". I know absolutely nothing about football so any help would be appreciated.

From one of your links "Current world champions Italy were close to usurping the Three Lions as the worst team from 12 yards in World Cup history in 2006" So I'm going with England

The England team has the worst record of any major team in the world when it comes to games decided on pens, with a dismal 17% win ratio - compared with Germany's 71%. From The Sun
So I think England0 -
When you go on the Nuts site it tells you the answer can be found on the Freesat site - Freesat site states:
Pub Ammo: England pay the penalty
According to the facts, are England really that bad at penalty shoot-outs?
To date, 20 World Cup finals matches have ended with a penalty shoot-out. Germany / West Germany have won all four of their shoot-outs, more than any other team.
Italy and England have lost more shoot-outs than any other nation - three apiece, although Italy did win their fourth shoot-out in the 2006 World Cup final.
England have yet to win a finals shoot-out, scoring seven penalties and missing seven in their three shoot-out defeats.
So definitely England0
