Away Goals

[TW89]

anyway your first comment towards Elite sound stupid if both team do have the same cache it IS fair

Yes its fair, doesnt make the rule good though does it. How about both teams have to play with a player who is disabled, thats fair right, doesnt make it a good rule.

You guys dont understand, it isnt football, two goals for one? Wtf.

I like penalties anyways (as long as its not England lol), mostly the best bit of the match lol 

[^_^]

so why don't you adress  penalties? World Cups, Champions Leagues, FA cups...decided on a game of chance? :lol:


But that's...."fair"... right?

[TW89]

Chance... No skill involved clearly...  :lol: 

And theres 90mins plus ET, its not like they start the game at penalties. It makes more sense to finish the game like this than a bonus goal for scoring away.

i think the away goal rule is a necessary evil for champions league. the only complaint i have is if it remains even there is extra time before penalties. i think that since they played 180 minutes and still not decided, it should go straight to penalties. the away goals do keep more games from ending up in extra time or penalties.

It's chance. Some goalies simply pick a side. And if you, as the kicker, pick the same side, then you're out of luck. Yes, there is skill if it's a world class keeper that can save a shot, but watch the 06 world cup. Where the fuck was Buffon? He couldn't guess right to save his life. He may as well have just taken chances and dove.

And seriously, we will decide the world champion on a shootout? So, the winner is who took better penalties? Has nothing to do with who played better soccer. They were obviously even.

I'm not against penalties, but it's something you should think about, rebel.

Its not that clear cut though is it. If you shoot top right, and the goalie dives bottom left he automatically saves it.... No.

And this isnt bout penalties anyways.

I have always been a huge fan of the multi-ball suggestion

they throw on 100 balls and what ever team can score the most in 25 minutes wins

[TW89]

lol Tito

If anything, it should only count after ET, not before it, to go out on equal goals is sooo shit.

i definitely don't agree w/that

120 minutes away w/the opportunity to score away goals versus 90 minutes

i would prefer replays tbh, but that's not possible on a large scale in today's game

[TW89]

But its all equal, both teams have scored the same amount, its like going out by default.

what are we talking about?

you were talking about away goals counting after ET?

or, was i mistaken?

[TW89]

I dont understand what your sayin pb

I was sayin if it was 1-1 first leg, 0-0 next, then currently the first leg away team would go through, which i dont agree with cos they're both equal though one team is going through on some crazy bonus goal. Thats why I think, if anything, it should go to ET, then if needed, the away goals could count.

Comprende?
