Europeans are far more logical than we are. They decide their champions by 38+ games instead of playing all those games only to reset everything and watch an average team get hot and win the "championship" in the playoffs. That shite happens every year in American sports. Don't get me wrong though, I love playoffs.

Back to the Away Goal discussion though, the only time it's bullshite is when two teams who share a stadium tie in the first two legs, but the "winner" is deemed as the team who happened to be the "away" side during, say, a 2-2 game. Happened during an Inter Milan- AC Milan aggr. a while back.

It's not the worst.

The worst is playing 38 games, and deciding a tie, with goal differential. Now that is fricking stupid.

You decide a tie on the field, 1 game, Neutral field. Seriea used to do that, but now go with head to head shite, like Laliga.

The idea that teams can tie 0-0 and then 1-1 and then have one be declared the "winner" is preposterous.
