Reply to: Sepp Blatter wants penalty shoot-out alternative

Penalties are one of the great facets of football.

If you don't want to risk losing on penalties, you better make sure you beat the team in the 120 mins.

The rules are the same for both teams.

Next goal wins and it takes as long as it takes.

Many years ago they tried that in a Brazilian cup match. It took three hours.

Its the same as the golden goal, which also provided dire football but at least that was limited to 30 minutes. It put 95% emphasis in defence.

Better to be decided on "points" i.e. in particular, shots on target, corners, free-kicks. The ball could be fitted with a chip, and all the footballer´s boots. This means it could be automated. The points could be displayed along with the goals.

Not free kicks!

Players simulate fouls enough as it is, imagine what it would be like if the result is directly affected. It would be like having 22 Klinnsmen on the pitch.

Headers and volleys.

What about settling it with rifles and fixed bayonets? Germans tended to lose those.

Not that you'd notice.

[Doggy Styles]

All players to down a pint every 2 minutes during extra time.

oh no, the germans would still win
