    Soccer overtime is a coin flip

    There is zero skill involved in these free kicks

    Goalie guesses right their team wins

    Has to be a better way to prove who the better team is because the sure is not

    JJ, I wish I was a soccer player.

    I haven't gotten laid in 2,729 straight days.

    I hate myself, and I hate my life.

    I don't want to be a soccer player, but I can't argue with the rest of that post.

    If you think their skill you're an idiot

    I can score 4 out of five against the World Cup goalie

    It's a silly rule

    There will be no true World Cup champ

    So many yellow cards issued is also a scam

    The player does a great acting job therefore the ref throws a yellow card

    After watching a lot of soccer games recently I see the flaws but still enjoying the games

    Yeah I'm sure you would remain calm with 80k+ people watching and the hope of an entire nation resting on your shoulders..

    Penalties (not free kicks by the way) are the only decent option. Unlike American sports they don't get a rest every 30 seconds while they show adverts, so playing until a goal is scored is not an option.

    I don't have a soccer ball

    I have been studying yellow cards and it is hurting the game

    Approximately 60% of yellow cards should not be issued

    How about overtime penalties to be taken from further out? I'm not sure if I'm joking... I would actually like to see that!

    JJ it's not just PICK ONe side and fall when it comes to penalty shootouts. Its all psycological. Some goalies use tatics against young inexperienced penalty takers and some kickers will do a pause run up. Sometimes the kicker gives away where he wants to place the ball with which way he is leaning, eyes... etc.
