Just curious what the forum has to offer on this subject. This past weekend, in the first HS pre-season tournament, I witnessed the strangest overtime format for soccer that I have ever seen;
(4)- 5 minute overtime periods, golden goal.
- Each time plays down one player for each period
So, 10 v 10 for the first 5m, then 9 v 9 for the next 5m, then 8, Then 7. If tied after this, PK's.
Never heard of anything like this. Seemed like the Refs were making things up as they went along, but were told that most HS tournament overtime formats are run this way.
Looking for feedback. Is this true?
