What’s the strategy for both teams if it’s tied late? Impromptu penalty kicks starting at the 80th minute?
Secret coin flip before the game, and the loser has to allow a goal just before the final whistle?

Nothing. You just care if you make it, you don't really care if the other team makes it or not. So if it tied late, both teams just play it really wide open and if it ends in a tie, so be it.
This happened in the last Women's World Cup. Argentina came all the way back to knock both teams out.
