Ties in Soccer

[BHS23]

i think ties should be elimanted from district games but other than that should stand...

With the exception of playoff games, I think ties are extremely valid outcomes of some games and I would hate to see them eliminated.

 

If you need to decide standings for District etc, do what all other soccer leagues do....go to goal differences within the district.

Or at the end of 80 minutes (h.s.), we could replace the regulation-size goals with goals that are 50% larger. Or we could allow coaches and school administrators who are present to participate during overtime play....

 

I think ties are fine. Two soccer teams who have played to even at the end of 80 minutes should record a tie, unless a winner is necessary to determine the advancing team.

 

Hahaha nice. Yeah, I agree. If neither team deserves a victory by scoring more than the other, the game shouldn't just be handed to one of them in a shootout or something. Ties are part of the game.
