Is there a single thing in the whole world of sports as utterly disgusting as a 0-0 tie?
I'm not even saying this to bash soccer. I like the sport, but I simply cannot for the life of me think of anything more despicable than watching 2 hours of literally nobody-- I mean NOBODY scoring or winning.

Defend the 0-0 tie. Just try to fucking defend it.
Pish posh cheerio you just wouldn't understand the beauty of 22 men having gay sex for 90 minutes.
0-0 doesn't necessarily mean that the strikers were shit, the goalkeepers could have been really good and just not have conceded.

Because football is the beautiful game.
Even with a 0-0 game you win - because you just got 90 minutes of football.

they each got a point and nobody lost

You are a faggot.

Ever watched cricket? I love it but it will rustle your jimmys if 0-0s do.
>play for five days
>game ends in a draw

The sheer length of the game is one reason I just can't bring myself to try and follow cricket. I enjoy what I watch, but to watch an entire match is just daunting.

only thing that comes close is the retarded NFL overtime rules
>if receiving team scores a TD game is over but if they only score a FG then the other team gets a chance
its stupid as fuck. just play an extra 10 minutes

I agree. they should atleast have penalty shootout but you know they won't change that because of tradition.
Germany versus Algeria ended in a 0-0 tie during regulation time and it was one of the best games of 2014 WC (the best one for me)

>have all ties decided by the lottery that is penalty kicks
sit down, convict.

World cup finals can be decided by lottery penalty kicks so why not have them for one of the worst football leagues "epl"
OP just sounds like somebody who doesn't know shit about sports. A 0-0 game in soccer is a competitive fucking game, and is probably better than a lopsided 2-0 game. Same thing in football. What's better a 0-0 game at the half or a 17-0 game?

Weird that you'd think goals are the be all and end all of sport.
Chess matches sometimes end in drws. Is that all for naught, too?
That's a silly non-athlete attitude, my tween friend.

17-0 is better if its my team.

>penalty shootout
the absolute worst thing in all of sport

Why? Why the fuck is everyone here so obsessed with scores? A match can be great without necessarily having a ton of goals, I've seen a lot 0-0 in my life and a lot of them have been great matches.
There can be boring as fuck matches where 1 goal is scored on circumstances or by an stupid mistake, is that better than an actual good game that ends up 0-0?
For fucks sake stop being so obsessed with goals and enjoy the actual game! A goal only last a fraction of a second, a match lasts 90min., learn to enjoy the multiple phases of the game, learn tactics, appreciate technical skills and stop overreacting about a game with no goals.
