But at the end of the day rules are rules; And the referee's decision is final in football, whatever mistake he has made. A 33rd spot will be rejected. The only competition I can recall where someone hasn't qualified but had an extra spot added for them is the champions league a few years back. That was because Liverpool had won it the previous year but had not qualified to protect their title. It was successful, but that was the one successful case amongst dozens of similar cases that were unsuccessful. I would imagine that the Liverpool case would be cited, but I doubt it wouldn't do any good. Ireland need to accept it and get on with life I'm afraid. |
lol, u mean million instead of billion I hope.
Anyway, what really happened in the match? Somone xplain. This article is worthless because it at one hand talks about an over-time goal, at the othe rhand talks about the need for extra referees. If the problem only was the goal being overtime that's due to ref ignorance, you dont need extra pairs of eyes for that.
