CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINALS: AWAY GOALS RULE & WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE’S A TIE

Before Real Madrid and Manchester City's tie in the last four concludes, Inter takes on AC Milan in the first of the semi-final second legs. Imagine a scenario where the groups can't be isolated.



The semi-finals of the Heroes Association arrive at their decision this week, beginning with the second leg of an European Derby della Madonnina. Tuesday, Inter takes on city rivals AC Milan. The Nerazzurri are 2-0 ahead of last week's opener and in contention to advance to the Istanbul final in June. To be sure, Milan's expectations of advancing rely upon the Rossoneri turning out to be just the second away group ever to recuperate from a 2-0 deficiency in the second leg of a Heroes Association knockout tie.


On Wednesday, Genuine Madrid then visit Manchester City in a conflict that remaining parts on a blade edge, after a 1-1 first-leg draw at the Bernabéu. This is definitely the most difficult of the two ties in the last four, and it appears much more likely that it will remain level after normal time in the second leg.


This makes one wonder: what occurs straightaway in the event that a Bosses Association knockout tie is all square following 180 minutes?


Are away goals in the Champions League more important?


The manner by which two-legged ties in European contests might actually be chosen has changed somewhat lately. The "away goals rule" was implemented so that teams were "rewarded" for scoring away from home for as long as most of us can remember. In particular, assuming that a tie completed level after the two legs, the group that had scored the most objectives from home would advance to the following stage.





Football isn't just one kind of sport. The game has gone through various rulebook changes since it was first arranged and keeps on adjusting.



From the 2021–22 season on, UEFA will no longer use the away goals rule in its flagship club competitions, the Champions League and Europa League, which has been a major topic of discussion among coaches in recent years.


In light of this, GOAL investigates the rule's history and determines whether its end is imminent.
