human makes mistake ... who knows if referee go see tv replay also can see wrongly 1 ...

but most of the time...ref will repay if he make mistake...usually people cant see it clearly...play more advantage..warning rather than card...and fair is a subjective word so...let just be fair to the ref...

Try not to be so gullible. I've never seen him post in the Liverpool thread before and being a new poster, common sense dictates he's just posting to take the piss taking into consideration the nature of how this thread started.

I am not sure if thread starter is trolling or not...

but i have to agree with the original post that it's not fair for the team away from home in the 2nd leg to get an extra 30 minutes to score one....

30 minutes is very lengthy time for an away team....

There is always advantage and disadvantage..

One of the advantage
If both team score 1 each away team still have a superior goal than the home team.

One of the disadvantage
Less support from fans compare to the home team...

I have never, ever, understood the logic behind the away goal rule.

As b00n says it was to stop teams being ultra defensive away from home, but it defeats the purpose, as if a team gets an away goal in the first leg, it often means that it's the home team who then go into the second leg with a defensive attitude.

If it's a way of deciding ties alone, then I can't see the fairness of it, as to be honest what's really the difference between two teams who've played two games that have ended 3-2 and 2-1?

If it's a way of encouraging more attacking games, it falls down because home teams with an away goal often go defensive.

this justify the team that go to opponent ground to play positive football and encourage them to score instead of defending. Before this, many weaker team prefer to sit back at their own yard at the away venue in order to not concede or gain a draw. This is similar case with Golden Goal rule.
