Has to be a better way to decide a soccer match
Posted on 7/7/26 at 5:56 pm to T1gerNate
So we’ll probably get France vs Spain and Argentina vs. Norway (hopefully)?

A reminder that there are no matches tomorrow (Wednesday)
The quarterfinal round starts Thursday with 1 match both Thursday & Friday while the last 2 matches are both on Saturday

I think fletcher had said 6 went into ET and that was the third penalty shoot out. Don't even know if that's right. But not sure what else you do. You can't keep playing for hours.
They had golden goal but the fans hated that too. It ended up doing the opposite of what they intended. Teams didn't want to lose in the opening minutes of extra time so instead of going balls to the wall to score first, they played even more conservative.

Some great quarterfinal match ups.
Really looking forward to England-Norway and France-Morocco

Why?
They had 120 minutes to decide it.

Agreed. But how would you feel about going back to Golden goal

Nah, penalties are more fun.

Golden goal happened within Extra Time, arguably made teams more afraid to attack as one counter attack and your out - much like the old NFL OT rules.
There were still pens

Most pathetic 10 minutes I've seen a team play in a while by Egypt there.
The US strung about 10 consecutive equally abysmal 10 minute segments together last night.

Golden goal
After 120, plus another 20-30 minutes with added time of scoreless soccer they could play paper rock scissors or a coin toss

Old MLS style shootouts would be fun as hell
I'd like to see that in a Copa or Gold Cup to try out
I've seen pundits suggest 9 v 9 and then take guys off as time goes by
I'm fine with the current setup. Golden Goal sucked.

A couple tweaks they could make, if it’s no longer tied after the first extra time it’s over, no “second half”. The second half of extra time is golden goal.

I read a pretty good idea on here yesterday.
Tied after FT?
Penalties
(winner wins the match IF it is still tied after ET)
then Extra Time as it is now.. but one team has to score or they lose

Penalties before extra time to decide the winner if it is still tied after extra time
Basically the winner of the penalties starts up 1 goal when extra time starts..

Were any of the goals in Egypt-Argentina as bad as the one the US goalie gave up?
