Thats life, we were all over Arsenal in the FA Cup final. We weren't good/lucky enough to score they won on pens. So be it.

What happens if the seasons starts and we are still replaying the World Cup final?

Look at previous World Cups Baggio missed in a final, ordinarily you would put your house on him to score and look at 1990 Argentina played for penalties all the way through to the final, I would never want to see a team use such tactics to get to a final again, let alone be in with a chance of winning it.

So what you would rather have a winner scored because someone doesn't have any energy to stop it?
How that is any less of a lottery I don't know.
