should play both semis at the same time on the same pitch with one ball .
I don’t hate it actually just means there’s yet MORE football games to be played.
The group format is usually pointless by games 5 & 6 and at least this way a load of teams will be scrapping for a playoff place.
Just wished they’d held the semis as one off games with the final in one city like they did with the Covid CL.
More games are inevitable, clubs have to make the revenue somehow to pay for player wages.
A salary cap is needed.
Looks quite fun tbh. Will make the group stages more meaningful, and seeded knockouts should lead to better matchups later on.
What do you think about the change?
