PK's, no question.
The later a tie game gets, the more cautious teams tend to be. PK's are a disincentive to playing for a tie. If you're willing to play for a coin flip, you better be prepared to lose by one. What's not in the question is the better idea -- two-legged, aggregate-goal knockout matches (played on different days, of course). Playing 180 minutes takes a lot of the luck out of the equation, reduces the likelihood of a tie game, and allows teams to be more open early on since they have plenty of time to recover from a mistake. And if you can't outscore a team in 210 minutes, you deserve whatever fate you get. Last edited by DadofTwins; Tue Jun 29, 2010 at 06:19pm.
