The Bayern goal was shocking......
Completely agree.... you can add the additional 1-2 minutes to the extra time at the end of the half so it's not considered a time out. Limit to a couple of most egregious calls to stop frivolity and time wasting.
Meters, indeed! Perfect scenario for a quick replay. Play stops anyway for at least 1-2 minutes during celebrations. Take a look and see. If conclusive evidence, reverse it. The replay system works best in college football (American), where they are set up to review every call, all game long. And when they do, it is typically very fast, unlike the NFL.
