Replay the match. Penalties are a rigged lottery that decides nothing about real soccer skill.
Replaying the match is a logistical nightmare that exhausts players. Golden goal creates instant drama and forces teams to actually play to win.
Isn’t a full replay just a lottery of freshness and weather, not skill under pressure? Penalties test nerve, precision, and decision when it matters most, crowning the winner on skill.
Penalty shootouts reveal true nerve and technique; they crown the truly composed, not the lucky. Elegance in a shootout is the sport's purest test: precision under pressure, decisive.
