Why did they introduce this 4th substitution BS?

Is it so they can bring on more players capable of running another 90 so they can maintain the deadlock? :shifty:

Let tired players be tired damnit. All this unnecessary tinkering

Extra time here is excellent news for the winner in Croatia-Denmark, and since I don't give a fuck about Denmark, it's excellent news for Croatia :weee:
:lol: I honestly think Croatia could take either.

Except for Uncle Wally. Nobody beats Putin. So if I were you I'd pull for Spain.

He has like 7 top class midfielders ahead of him?


Most stacked midfield ever.

but not a single appearance, not even as a sub? i feel like he would be more of a difference maker off the bench for a game like this than Iniesta.

So that the third sub is not wasted in wait of whether there will be extra time or not

Another pair of fresh legs in extra time. What's there not to like?
I don't see why that's needed. Nothing wrong with two teams being tired after 90 minutes. Might actually make it more likely to end the stalemate with more errors and less running

I mean why not 2 extra subs, or 3?

It was fine before. This change does not make it better
