Win won the 1st leg, 2-1
Man U win the 2nd leg 2-1
This brings the aggy to 3-3, which forces ET
In ET, both teams score 1 more, bringing the total to 4-4
This is when away goals count twice.
Man U score 1 away goal, we score 2..
This brings the grand total to 6-5 to us.

Whats wrong with that?
Dear me :lol: This has to be a windup
 
You've cocked this 1 right up. Gan to the pub for a pint you might need it after this thread is finished.
 
I still don't understand why if 2 of our 4 goals were away, that does not mean 6 if it goes to the goals count twice.

"13.5: In the Semi-Final ties, if the aggregate score is level at the end of the second game an extra half-hour shall be played.

If the aggregate scores are still level at the end of extra time the tie shall be decided by goals scored away from home counting twice.

If the teams remain equal after this procedure the tie shall be determined by the taking of kicks from the penalty mark in accordance with the Laws of Association Football."

because as above, you don't actually change the number of goals to "count double" on the scoreboard, you do the math in your head and say "team won on away goals"
 
By your logic the score is currently 2-2...
No. Goals only count as 2 AFTER ET.[DOUBLEPOST=1390323049][/DOUBLEPOST]
that isn't how it's presented though
What am I reading wrong with this then?

That is the score at the end of ET with 'normal' addition. Therefore to calculate the winner, away goals count as two. Bringing it to 6-5
"both teams have 4 goals but Sunderland scored 2 away from home compared to man utd's 1 away from home, so sunderland win. Final score = 3-3, winner = Sunderland.

Of course.. I was just showing the math that someone would use to deduce the winner. The scoreboard would only show 4-4
