Chelsea midfielder Frank Lampard has revealed that the club have not practised penalties ahead of their Europa League final with Benfica tonight.
The Blues won the Champions League on penalties last season against Bayern Munich, but the England international has said that such a scenario is not being thought about around the club ahead of the tonight's showpiece final.
"We haven't practised yet and I don't think we will," Lampard told The Mirror.
"A year ago we practised them and took penalties against each of the four goalies we had. We all took them then and we won.
"But then again, I practised them with England many a time in tournaments and we ended up losing the shootout, so I don't think there is any perfect recipe.
"It is down to the individual. Some people like to practise, but Michael Ballack never practised a penalty when he was here and he was one of the best penalty-takers I have played with."
Lampard recently became the club's all-time leading scorer.
