Ties in the World Cup?

Tried watching the World Cup this year and USA ended in a tie and now the Mexico/Poland game is about to do the same.
Lol pathetic… ties shouldn’t exist. It’s a waste of everyone’s time. The players, the fans, everyone gets ripped off.
This lame arse shite will make you look forward to the up-coming WNBA season!

I don't have an issue with it. It's just for these group stages

WNBA doesn't have ties, you'd have been better off saying NFL here.

In group play the ties really don't matter unless you just want to declare a winner
It's about goals scored that will determine who gets out of group play and it's fair for everyone
Getting out of group stage really depends on your draw more than anything

Its not retarded. Ties are retarded. Here in America we hate ties and the rare times there are ties in the NFL everybody leaves pissed off.

It's very retarded. And it's a lame predictable take made once every 4 years by Neanderthals that just can't handle how other sports choose to operate.

Its a very fair criticism of the sport
People hated it in american football so both NFL and college have done what they can to eliminate ties.
Soccer doesnt care

It's not at all. There is no need for group stage games to have an additional 30 minutes or more tacked on just to satisfy American sports fans.

CFB has the most artificial, farcical system to break ties.
What CFB OT is isn't even football.

It really has been eight years since anyone has watched soccer hasn't it
Hot take: MLB regular season should declare ties after 12 innings

They dont have to do it
Just realize that it turns people off.

The point of the World Cup isn’t to determine a winner in every match. It’s to determine one champion at the tournament’s conclusion. Ties in the group stage are useful in accomplishing that goal.
ETA: Well, the main point is making money, of course. But from an on-field standpoint…

You should want to grow your fanbase, not maintain it.

At this point, soccer is not worried about extreme sidewalk fans that want to change the sport every 4 years.
They'll manage.
