To play a championship in any sport, only to have it decided by such a high percentage shot is just dumb, IMO.
Does the NFL settle the Super Bowl by a field goal contest?What about doing the Home Run Derby if Game 7 of the World Series end in a tie? 3-point contest for the NBA Championship, anyone?
Even hockey, where they have shootouts for regular season games, plays full overtimes until someone scores.
Any game where a player is rewarded for falling out of bounds, walking to the middle of the field and then rolling around on the ground, should be banned from the face of the earth.
I saw this in the 3rd Place game between the US and Colombia. If I were the referee, I'd give the flopper a red card on the spot.
Silly game with silly rules.
