MF TAZ Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Never been a fan. What are some alternatives? Serious and silly answers both welcome. What i think is crazy is that we replay pointless FA cup ties but not CL and WC finals. Surely a replay is worth millions, plus would be more exciting than a penalty shootout. Imagine if at 90 mins last night, the outcome was see ya Tuesday for the replay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Owl 2 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 I think straight to penalties is better at times. Extra time rarely produces many goals as both teams can go ultra defensive waiting for inevitable shootout. Anyone remember that American idea of penalties where player started from halfway line and it was one on one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helmut_rooster Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 1. Kick up contents, 5 minutes whichever team does the most in that time wins. 2. Alternative penalties, each takers objective is too small the ball clean in the keepers face, 5 attempts each point awarded for each black eye received. 3. Centre circle 'joust' gladiators style, referee watches close by, while each captain attempts to beat the other. I have more if your interested.

OxonOwl Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Golden goal instead of extra time. Next goal's the winner. Play all night if necessary 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Think for a final Penalties are a very unsatisfactory way of deciding the winners. But if cant fit in a replay a few days later I think its the best option. One thing about shoot outs are that they are exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaughan Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Take on keeper from halfway line ... Got 15 seconds from whistle. I think this was done in North America in the 80s .. Probably has more of an element of skill to it . but couldnt ever see it being taken up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANDY Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Take the penalties before the game starts. each team then knows they have 90 + 30 to win. team winning penalties may want to defend for the whole match but will have to face constant onslaught. team losing penalties know they need to win in the 90/30 so will want to attack more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
