RightUpInCider Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Beat Man City 1-0 and we’re off to Wembley! What a position to be in.... whatever the outcome it should be a memorable night at the Gate in a few weeks time. Just need to make sure those lucky Portishead u11 Players are there!

Major Isewater Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I really can't see Personchester City failing to score at least one goal so I predict 2-1 to the mighty reds and a win for us on penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFChris Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I take it that if we were 1-0 up after normal time and then drew 1-1 during extra time, Man Blue's goal in extra time would not count towards the away goals and we would go through?

Admin Ian M Posted January 10, 2018 Admin Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 I would never wish serious injury on any player but if Aguero was to pick up a little strain at the weekend that kept him out for a fortnight that would be very handy I also noted that for 80 mins last night Sterling, Zinchencko and Sané would driving all crosses low across the near post and we were dealing with them well (instruction from Pep given our tall CBs?) It wasn't until Kyle Walker came on that they started floating some crosses in that would eventually see Aguero score from a Silva cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I think about it, that's utterly backwards isn't it? It's unfair on the side playing away first. So, basically, away goals only count during the extra period of time that the side playing away 2nd has to score. It's bizarre. It would make more sense to be the other way round surely, they count for the 90 mins but not after. I mean, if it becomes an issue then we've performed absolute wonders but still, it's a bit odd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should we win 1-0 after 90 mins, extra time would be played. If it finishes 1-0, we win. Equally, if we won 4-3 after 90 mins, extra time would be played. Their three away goals would only count after extra time. Where the unfairness may come is if it finishes 2-1 after 90 mins, then both teams score in extra time, giving a 4-4 aggregate score. Man C would go through for scoring 2 away goals, even though one of them came in an additional 30 mins of opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why after the 90 minutes should the away side in the 2nd leg have the advantage that if they score it would count as double. I know that side would be away from home but still!

handsofclay Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 The last time we were in the semis we drew 1-1 away to Forest and then drew 0-0 at home after 90 mins. Really, it should be that away goals come into play at that point as they do in all other two legged ties around the globe. City would then have made the final. As it transpired Forest got a winner in extra time. However, had City equalised and then scored another only for Forest to equalise, making it 2-2 after extra-time, Forest would've gone through on away goals. But surely that is an anomaly as they had 33% more time playing away from home than City would've had. They made a big issue of VAR having to be used at both legs of our tie with Man C, but then allow one side (the away side in the 2nd leg) the potential to have an extra 30 minutes, that the home side were not given when they were away, to score extra weighted away goals!

Wanderingred Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Imagine how poor old Inter felt a few years back. Two legged Champions League semi final against their Milan rivals.. Both games played at the same stadium, one game finished 0-0 and the other 1-1.. Because Milan scored in the game designated as their "away" leg, they went through on the away goals rule. Absolute shocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to use away goals it should be over the same period of time for both teams. So if it finished 3-2 at FT they'd go through, but if it finished 2-1 and then 3-2 AET it would just go straight to penalties, because we've scored the same amount over 90 mins, and we shouldn't be penalised for having to play longer at home.

ashton_fan Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 At least if we are one up on 90 we'll get extra time at AG rather than at their place, that's a realistic target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they would go through 3-2. If Man City score we need to score 2. Otherwise we need to keep them out for 120 minutes. Us winning 2-1 AET is the only way it goes to penalties. If we were to win 3-2(4-4 agg) then Man City go through AET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those permutations seem to favour Manchester City. I hate being pessimistic but I just can't see us keeping a clean sheet and I can't see us scoring 3 whilst limiting them to 1. Which all points to either nobly bowing out or to a 2-1 victory and an agonising penalty shootout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
