Suggestion:

They should start the games with a penalty shoot-out. One round at a time until one side gets the lead. Then play the game as normal with one side starting 1-0 up, but that goal acts as a tiebreaker against if the game ends in a draw.

There, sorted. FIFA, give me my millions.

They could do this as part of the half time show

To follow up on the football analogy, here is a modest proposal that I think would be more interesting. Should probably go in the newbie thread but in the interest of continuing the discussion here, I'll leave it. Especially since nothing is going on in the game.

So, each team gets a turn on offense. They start with the ball at midfield, if ball goes back across it, it's reset at midfield again with the offense having control. Defense plays a man down. Offense has 5 minutes to score as much as they can. Repeat with teams switching offense / defense roles. If tied after this first round, repeat but this time the defense plays 2 men down (or 3 if it goes into a third, etc).

this is definitely not football american

Why not just go back to golden goal after extras? No one's fond of penalties.

At least in the knockout rounds, just let em play forever.
