I think those assists indicate who earns the penalty. So if a player earns a penalty, and then also scores the penalty, they get awarded with an assist. I don't know why, exactly, but that is my theory. I do not necessarily have a problem with it, since it is not really a technical issue/bug, and more of a football terminology issue.
