how to fix the world cup
I’m not a World Cup follower… but I can feel the pain of people who care about it when it comes to penalties. Penalties suck! They are downright unfair. So here’s the fix:
1. After extended time, there is another 20 minute extension in which offside is cancelled.
2. Teams start with 9 players each and every 5 minutes a player is taken out from each team.
If they can’t score then, they both deserve to leave the cup!
There, problem solved; I require no royalties, only credit.

I think one of things that make soccer interesting is that luck plays an important role in it. Life is not fair and for sure neither is soccer. Penalties give a chance to the weaker teams to beat the stronger ones. They are not more important factors than incompetent referees or lying no-good snakes like Christian Ronaldo.
However, I like your suggestions. “I’m only playing devil’s advocate!” hahaha

SF,
Life isn’t fair; never will be.
But giving an advantage to a weaker team makes absolutely no sense to me.
PS. good thing you are far away ;)
