Not to mention in an era when player fatigue is constantly being mentioned there's now more chance of teams playing an extra 30 minutes.
I don't get why they had to change it given this creates more problems than solutions. In fact what does it solve? |
"Top clubs play too many games already"
"Let's play another 30 minutes in some of those games"
A matter of time before a top player gets injured significantly in the 115th minute, in a game his club wins and also would've won under the old rule, while avoiding said injury.
