Pukey Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I don't like extra time at all but I really don't think there's any proper solution to what to do if teams are level. Golden goal was crap, extra time is almost always dull as dishwater, penalties are a pretty crap way to decide things (albeit incredibly dramatic obvs), really not sure what you can do about it that doesn't have some awful flaw Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunmaN1905 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) Just whistle for full time, this match is why casual viewers say football is boring. 3 minutes ago, Coulthard's Jaw said: Actually really interesting, noone came even close to the corner on the left side, regardless of height. This is a nice example of how every goalkeeper has a stronger side for diving. Right-footed keepers have an easier time diving to the left, as seen here.
