Four Austria defenders miss training ahead of last-16 clash with Turkey
"Sure, you can practice it, but this pressure situation, if it should arise, is difficult to recreate," midfielder Florian Grillitsch told reporters.
The 28-year-old revealed that every goal at Friday's training session had to be "confirmed" by a successful penalty - otherwise, it didn't count.
Gernot Trauner (thigh injury) and Phillipp Mwene (head cold) did not train at all, while Philipp Lienhart and Leopold Querfeld trained individually as the team got back to work following their famous 3-2 victory over the Netherlands on Tuesday.
That win, which saw them top the group, was followed by a training session for the substitutes on Wednesday and a day off on Thursday, but on Friday the serious work began, with an added focus on spot kicks.
A victory over Turkey on Tuesday would set the Austrians up for a quarter-final tie against Romania or their recent foes, the Dutch.
