Defend this

It was created back when travel was arduous

No away goals are literally worth more

Away goals are worth 1.1 goals

It’s retarded, in basketball should a three pointer be worth 4 if your the visiting team?

>here are the rules

>no actually the rules are this

strange cope post lad

you don't have any idea what you're talking about

imagine a touchdown is worth 8 points, extra points 2 points, field goals 5 points for the away team

Should a two pointer be worth three of your standing in a certain spot?

It is statistically proven that teams are harder to beat at home or differently put: home games are provingly easier so that's why there's an extra reward for away goals

>baskets further away from the hoop are worth more
>goals further away from your home can't be

Nice double standards

wouldnt it just even out over the two games then?
idk what aggregate is
I don't understand how this affects extra time
I like this theory

if thats the case then I guess it makes sense
why are home games easier? are all pitches not the same?

No. There's different materials (from grass to plastic shittery), different sizes, different levels of watering, length, etc. All affects play styles and how useful your formation is

No

For all intents and purposes an away goal is worth more than one goal (I just used 1.1 arbitrarily)

Like if team A wins 2-1 at home, but loses 0-1 away to team B then the aggregate score using my method is team wins B 2.1 - 2

Yes I know In the rules it’s not actually 1.1 goals, but it also in reality is.

This, 3 point is even more arbitrary than away goals actually, and affect the competition alot more as well.

>corner threes aren't even from the same distance than real threes

Because the fans make a difference. Away fans get like 5-10% of the ticket allocation.
Also travelling, and hostile atmospheres.

fans are not 50/50

>ANOTHER thread by the seething city plastic
yikes

>I just used 1.1 arbitrarily
so you're just making up stuff, got it

the reasoning behind the away goals rule is pretty simple. by making away goals 'worth more', the idea is to encourage away teams to attack more rather simply parking the bus and trying finish the away leg with a 0-0. whether you agree with it or not is another matter but the theory really isn't that difficult to grasp.

it's amusing that Americans pounce on this when, for example, the NFL awards the worst team in the league the opportunity to select the 'best' college player rather than relegating them to a second tier.

different sports in different countries do things differently. weird huh?

side note: fans don't have to 'justify' shit.

is there any particular reason why they aren't standardized?
how do fans affect performance, am I living in my animes?

No, an away goal is worth more than one. That’s a fact.

I used 1.1 because it was simple. You could use 1.05 and it would be the same. Or 1.017373 the fact is away goal is not the same as a home goal

It's worth double watch a game some time ya pinhead

You're not wrong mate, I don't know why people are arguing with you.

The worst one I hear, even from Brits, is "Away goals count for double"

are you honestly unaware of the concept of home field advantage? of course not so stop being contrary for the sake of it.

It's actually not because if I'm not mistaken, Liverpool has never faced Everton in a European knockout stage

>standardised

Why would they be?

There's no standardisation because of history basically, think of how baseball fields have weird shapes and tall walls and stuff

Let me guess. You live in a shitty state like Ohio and haven’t seen the ocean in over 1 year? Pathetic little nigger

>beta eurocucks can only do good in front of their home fans
why does this not surprise me?

Different dimensions allow for differing styles of play. You can submit these dimensions at the beginning of each season and then must conform to them for the remainder. If you have a very pacey, wide team, for instance, you will want a wider pitch to allow for more space on the wings and to stretch the opposition team causing larger holes in their defence.

>The corners of the pitch are marked by corner flags. For international matches the field dimensions are more tightly constrained; the goal lines must be between 64 and 75 m (70 and 80 yd) wide, and the touchlines must be between 100 and 110 m (110 and 120 yd) long.

Ask stupid questions get stupid answers.
Come on, fren, you must be aware that fans affect performance. It's basic sports psychology. Imagine you were set a task, now imagine that task but with 40,000 people all you a cunt and screaming that they were gonna fucking kill you.

Only a complete fucking autist doesn't understand this.

Wow it's like fans actually generating an atmosphere, instead of being told to MAKE SOME NOISE by the videotron every once in a while might be more distracting.

I agree, away goals are stupid and should be removed. Both teams get to enjoy home advantage so why would you want to neuter that?

So what happens if both games end 1-1?

extra time. what did you think would happen? dick size competition?

yes

An away goal is worth 1.75 goals, a regular goal is worth .99 repeating goals. If you can't grasp this, you have Autism.

Extra time in one team's home ground that has been statistically proven to be an advantage?

all that shit wrote said is garbage and is based on intuition and feeling and extrapolating from situations you've been in that were not sports in front of a crowd, not scientific testing.
homefield advantage is a myth.

here's an anecdote for you: i played varsity soccer and the opposing team's fans never affected me. Not even when we in other countries. That's because I was too focussed on the game, like every other athlete ever. Audience might affect you in tennis, but I can't think of many sports where it might.

Don't make me cringe any further, I am liable to turn inside out.

Fuck that housing looks grim

The Anfield and Everton areas are absolute shitholes. Most of Liverpool is pretty grim actually.

What more evidence do you need than relative home/away victory rates?
Retard.

As an aside I'd say home crowd CAN occasionally affect the Refs, especially if the crew are some Nobody refs from a 3rd world country reffing a game at Camp Nou or the Bernabeu and they grew up fans of that team or whatever.

Another point: there's no doubt that these crowds/stadiums/atmospheres are not comparable to your varsity soccer games. I played soccer my entire life and agree with you but what we experienced is nothing compared to the vitriol players experience on a European away leg.

Seat allocations, away fans are never more than like 10% - if that. Even if physical distance is minimal, the atmosphere will be completely different - not that an amerifat would know LMAO

>how do fans affect performance
Just fucking wipe America off the face of this cursed Earth, Jesus Christ.

Draw in total score (180 min) results in direct penalty shotout where home field advantage is statistically null

No away goals rule, no extra-time, 180 minutes of football is enough to prove superiority in football, and 2-legged series already nullifies home field advantage in the way possible and when that isnt enough in most of the cases is cuz both teams were at fault.

Penalty shotout being a luck-prone-ish
tiebreak, more than a reward is a punishment to teams that doesnt look for a decisive win in both legs

Their fault for not just getting a plane desu.

Divegrass already had a burgerland way to tiebreak matches, it was called golden and silver goal... and it was awful

#
In the champions league, teams play 2 games (known as legs), which are played at each team's stadium. Goals from both legs are added up. If the teams are tied on goals but one team has scored more goals in their opponent's stadium (away goals), the team with the most away goals goes through. If they're tied on away goals, the game goes to extra time. If they're still tied, the game goes to penalties.

is it meant to mean as a sport to stick your kids in or something?
because football is FAR more popular than baseball for professional play

home runs are only worth a double if you’re the Yankees in Boston. It only makes sense and there’s no better way to solve the issue.

FFS ITS NOT ABOUT DISTANCE ITS ABOUT FAN PRESENCE. DID YOU SEE THE TINY AMOUNT OF SPURS FANS AT THE ETHIAD? NOT UEFAS FAULT THAT CITY CANT CREATE ATMOSPHERE FOR SHIT!

Okay he’s a thought, what if the away team paid for all the tickets to a match and distributed them to only their fans. Should the goals still be worth more?

Okay so why don’t the home fans lie about which team they support, wear the opposing teams merchandise for the first half, then switch. Should away goals still be worth more?

Okay so why not add the distances that each player is from his home town, divide it by the average distance, then use that ratio to determine the worth of a goal?

americans are so fucking stupid with their sports

Okay so some foreign born player is always away since his biggest supporters are in jackfuckistan, so shouldn’t the team with more foreigners have goals worth more to counter the effects of fan racism? I think there should be a melanin adjustment ratio since it’s not fair that some fans will eat bananas aggressively around them.

Okay so why not just play two games in a row at a spot equidistant from each town?

Do the gate keepers keep a tally of how many supporters of each team enter the stadium so they can compare the numbers to determine how much the away goal should be worth? If the crowd is split even 50-50 with 1 extra away supporter, why should the away goal be worth more?

Impossible away supporters are only allocated 10% of seats, almost all go to season ticket home fans

This is why Americans keep making these threads. They refuse to learn

Do the ticket counters ask and demand proof of what team you’re supporting? You gotta show proof of residence to buy a ticket or some shit?

So you’re saying that if every Muslim in Britain wanted to watch Salah play, you racists would only let 10% in just arbitrarily like that? Seems remarkably based

Not posible, most are already associated to the club so you cant get those sests if you are not their fan, also good job getting murdered if you actuallu manage to do it

You don't understand. There aren't any tickets for sale to a big European cup match in the way you understand it. To go to a game you have to be a season ticket holder, which costs thousands of pounds and allows you to go to every home league game. The remaining tickets, if there are any, go to people who have bought lots of tickets in the past and accumulated supporter points. There are far far more fans than seats available so getting tickets is extremely difficult.
0% of the tickets are on sale to the general public (unless you pay shit loads for an executive ticket). The 10% of away tickets are even harder to get than home tickets

Americans don't understand that Football Clubs are literally that.
Its different with Sports Entertainment Franchises.

Not him but that kind of stinks if you're a tourist. It'd be fun to see a real match instead of cringey MLS shit. Guess I'll just stick to pirating streams

Yeah it sucks. I lived in Liverpool for years and never got to go to a league match. Your best bet if you're ever over here is to go to a lower team in the Prem or a decent championship side. Or fork out fucking loads on a dodgy site and hope you don't get scammed

do americans unironically root for single players instead of teams?

this

almost. away goals were introduced to cut the 3rd deciding match on neutral ground. literally the opposite of what would happen today in this day and age of over-exposure of footie

Because extra time means that one team plays 90 minutes away and the other plays 120, it's unfair

fuck the other team, if they weren't better in the first 180 minutes extra time should happen

No team was better in the 180 minutes you spastic

To the 1.1 goal Amerifat: Don't let the mathlets discourage you, you're spot on.

Also, just make a penalty shooutout with the entire team the tiebreaker, so 11 on each side. If you are one man down, you get one less penalty.

>americans actually think an away goal is worth 1.1 or 1.x etc.
>not knowing what a ruleset is

It's been dermatologically and clinically tested that chanting 'DEFENCE' *clap clap* fortifies the teams defence making it impossible for the opposition to score for the next 5 minutes

Promotes attacking play for the team playing in the away legs. Look at Bayern, they sat back against Liverpool at home and Liverpool attacked them away and cucked them.

The rule started because teams used to defend too much and play for a draw when playing away from home. It made for boring games so they introduced the away goals rule to incentivise teams to score away from home

If it wasn't this way the stands would be full of chinks and arabs who would pay through the nose for their tickets. It's this way to keep it local.

Because by the time tickets would be on sale, they have actually all already been pre-bought (by season ticket holders).
Want to go to lots of home games at a successful club that will sell out? Get a season ticket.
If anything, the bigger danger is that home fans who don't own season tickets will buy up AWAY tickets and leave them with even fewer, but this is also not as easy as it sounds.

so just like most things written by an american then

Among the 31 teams in the NHL 29 had a better home record than away record this year. I'm only bringing up NHL because that's a number I already know and I'm too lazy to look up MLS but I assume it's the same for all sports. Home advantage is real.

So if you need something to differentiate a tie by, why not away goals?

And once a rule like that is instituted you can't really cherry pick it to only apply to certain teams because two teams happen to play near each other.

It's not actually
An away goal worth more (let's say 1.5 goals) implies that you could theoretically win by scoring enough away goals desping losing on agreggate

soccer is the only sport I know of with 2-leg games which is the only time the rule is applied.

it's either that or one game on neutral territory and for an international tournament like championship league it would be pretty dumb to have the final in a 3rd country.

how many games in a season do they play at home?

I just watched that episode yesterday kek

AFL season is 23 rounds, not including finals. My team averaged 53k across the season and never had a game with less than 50k people. Richmonds averaged 63k despite playing in a city with 8 (eight) teams. Some clubs have over 100k members
afltables.com/afl/crowds/2018.html
Now keep in mind this is happening at the same time that two other major leagues are running (rugby league and rugby union).

How could anyone possibly defend having small stadiums and needing to wait years for the chance to watch your local team play? That's beyond me. And yuros always say soccer is a working class sport. what the fuck

>Small stadiums
But we don't. There are only a handful of clubs that sell out every week, and their stadiums are updated regularly. You can buy tickets on the day for most teams in the country.
ITT we've been talking about Champions League matches which is a different matter altogether

soccer stadiums are often in the middle of the city and not in the middle of the desert 20 miles away from civilization

no idea what your point is but we build our stadiums in specific sports precincts because we don't have third world infrastructure.

International series don't even have this when the touring team is at the biggest possible disadvantage. So either soccer is just a retarded outlier or soccer players are such sooks they get rocked by some people cheering against them.

Other sports don't have two legged matches you dumb nigger

other sports have play offs and finals series where you play one single game at an way team's stadium which determines if you get knocked out of the season or not.

Imagine playing several knockout games in a stadium that has no relation to either team. Instead of two hype fixtures at each team's stadium, where the crowds can give the home team their support and the away crowd has the based underdog feel.

No wonder other sports are so shit.

>Imagine playing several knockout games in a stadium that has no relation to either team.
I can't because I've literally never seen such a thing happen in any sport (only america has the braindead neutral venue for the super bowl). In play off and final series the team that accumulated the most points (ie did the best) plays their finals games at THEIR stadium because they earned it by being the better team the entire regular season.

>where the crowds can give the home team their support and the away crowd has the based underdog feel.
This is not unique to soccer. Every major sport in the world has this but the hype is intensified by it being an absolutely all or nothing game. Last season a team here beat the home team in front over 95k of their fans in the preliminary final. Overcoming all of those odds in a single game is infinitely more exciting than winning on aggregate points. How is this hard for Euros to understand?

In OTHER sports playoff and quarter-, semi- and preliminary-final games are played at the home teams' stadium. You keep going on about muh 2-legged series when other sports have even more important games that don't do this bullshit.

The first time I've ever heard of a finals game not being hosted by a home team is now that you've brought it up, so I can only imagine its unique to soccer.

>only heard of this for the first time today
that's probably due to living in a tree with your other abo friends that cut dicks open vertically and molest children while huffing petrol

so you’re saying soccer is a racist discriminatory sport that can only exist by excluding browns?

Out of all the sports I watch (rugby union, cricket, aussie rules, rugby league, american football (other than the superbowl)), it does not work the way you've described. Doesn't matter what country it's played in.

lmao the abo is absolutely REELING from the onslaught he has endured today

kek 20 minutes later

It's almost like I have better things to do than bully an abo on the internet. You wouldn't understand that, since your life revolves around huffing petrol, sleeping in the streets, getting drunk and collecting welfare.

t. wageslave
maybe after saving up money to buy lots of your teams merchandise you'll accumulate enough good customer points to get the privilege of buying a ticket to one so you can sing along with your choir to really rock the opposing team!

It's 6pm on a Friday, abo. The fact that you think I'm working is very telling about just how subhuman you are. Go back to raping abo children and huffing petrol.

merica pls stop

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS CAPTAIN MARVEL

because benuldies are literally coin flips

i'd argue that playing the second leg at home on this situation is an advantage, as you already "know" what you have to do.

but it's still better than away goals imo, and group stage/previous games performance could determine whoever plays the 2nd leg at home.

Irrelevant because Everton are never in Europe long enough for a knockout phase

funny because all oil money teams had garbage results in international competitions. really jogs the nog.

Terraced houses, a very common sight in Norf.

though they look like shit from the air they're really comfy, especially compared to the highrise flats of the south

Peak cope

Because for some reason, teams do play better when playing at home. If you've ever watched a football game you'd know it.

encourages the opposition to attack instead of shutting up shop and waiting for the home leg.

the reverse would happen, leading to boring ass one sided games. in theory anyway.

I played varsity too you absolute spastic. The stands were empty except for the families of the players because nobody gives a shit about high school soccer. There is no home field advantage even in youth club soccer in North America. I genuinely can't tell if this is Poe's Law or you're actually retarded.

What is the purpose of that space between the courtyards? escape?

They're called 'entries' although most of the rest of the North call them 'guinells'. People used to chuck their rubbish behind their and used needles and occasionally bits of chicken that dumb people would mistake for aborted babies, but then the council decided to close it off at each end and now it's just a gap.
When I lived in Liverpool it was quite useful for escape, as you said. I could run down the one behind my house to prevent getting my head caved in by 6 or 7 scumbags.
Liverpool really is a shithole.
Manchester is no better though. The whole Norf needs investment.

I grew up in a semi-detached middle class village in the south and rate terraced housing so no

Okay so why don’t they just play on neutral ground?

extra time and penalties are really dumb

away goals make both legs very exciting

Oh i see so youre talking about the edwardian terraces you get in rich parts of london and edinburgh?

No I'm on about the terraced houses in Manchester I spent two years in at uni

>American """fans"""" are so inconsequential that the concept of a hostile away environment baffles and confuses them
