I don’t think they did have it, we lost the home game 1-2 then won 3-2 away at the end normal and extra time so went to pen. Away goals rule we win.

East Kent Saint Posted 25 June, 2021 Share Posted 25 June, 2021 They say it is because the home advantage has been reduced by decent pitches , improved travel for away teams etc so the statistical advantage has reduced , It is also said that for Women's football there is still an advantage but they have to come in line anyway !

sadoldgit Posted 25 June, 2021 Share Posted 25 June, 2021 Didn’t they bring the rule in originally because many away teams always parked the bus and it was supposed to encourage them to attack? Glad to see the change which I always thought was grossly unfair. A goal should be worth a goal, plain and simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will find out soon enough. But in reality did not work. Home sides just as likely to hope not to concede an away goal and set up accordingly so did not have desired effect. A goal is a goal and if over two legs both sides have scored the same amount, one side has not achieved victory over the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, but its as good as 96, little success since then so its relative. England are a second tier European nation in football terms. Id say Semi finals are its level in a good tournament. With home advantage it could go to the final so Id say this is the best chance fir a while. If Southgate gets you to another semi or final he deserves to have a knighthood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Jeweller Posted 26 June, 2021 Share Posted 26 June, 2021 Don't think Bale has had a shot on target in over 3 and a half games yet, So much for having a season at Spurs to get up his match sharpness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people underestimate a little bit how good an achievement it was for us to win our group without conceding. Although we’re on the ‘easy’ side of the draw, I don’t think that Germany are necessarily the biggest obstacle before the final. They’re certainly capable of having a terrible game at the moment, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
