What the point in extra time

In this game, no point at all, go straight to pens and put the player's and more importantly viewers out of their misery

In the past when you only had 2 subs I’d say no point, most players were in trouble physically now with 5 subs teams should be ok.

Historically going straight to pens would be better considering something like 38 of 59 extra time matches in World Cup history have ended in pens. But the point of football is end a game in play, not from a long succession of dead ball situations like penalties are, which never decides who the best team is.

England were KO'd on pens in 96, 98, 04, 06, 12 20, we were never the worst team in any of those games, but the lottery of pens sent us out. Pens is always the last solution and always should be, which is why they used to have replays for games including finals, until hectic scheduling saw to that.

Kind Regards.

If you are really tired tell the manager I’m fcucked, nobody would hold it against you, it’s honestly for the group.

Probably suggests it isn't really a lottery

we won a couple against Spain and Colombia

Since we worked out pelanties are not a lottery we have somewhat improved in shootouts.

Yeah, Pearce's redemption against the Spanish

Nadal's uncle played in that game

this guy looks nervous
