The game finishes at the end of the 30 minutes of extra time, but people will be properly going for it because they know they're up 0.5 down.

Will they be going for it?

Well, they have to because they would be losing round two.

No, but look, I'm just suggesting it.

It's something that means that the 30 minutes of extra time, which can be boring, and sometimes... Well, they tried that with the golden goal, didn't they?

It's like half a goal.

So if you score a goal, you're in front of them.
