<p>After 56 years, <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/uefa" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UEFA</a> </strong>have declared that theaway goals rulewould be withdrawn from European <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer-t81579" target="_blank" rel="noopener">soccer</a> starting from the upcoming<strong>2021/2022season</strong>. The adjustment is being implemented throughout the mens’ and women’s <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Champions League</strong></a>, the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/europa-league-t31" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> <strong>Europa League</strong></a>, and the <strong>Europa Conference League</strong>. UEFAcurrently claimthat there is no longer a basis to be made for rating away goals more highly than home goals.</p>
<p>The away goals rule has been in use in football for nearly 50 years, having been originally used in the 1965-66 Cup Winners Cup. It was initially used in the tournament’s second round, in a game between Czech side Dukla Prague and Hungary’s Budapest Honved in November 1965.<br> It was later expanded to the European Cup- now Champions League -in 1967 and has since been used in a broad range of knockout events throughout the world.</p>
<p>The away goals rule is one of three FIFA-approved procedures for determining a game’s victor in the case of a tie, the other two being extra time and penalties. The regulation was introduced with two main goals in mind: to eliminate the necessity for a tie-breaker at a neutral site and to encourage teams to attack away from home.</p>
<h2>Top 5 Champions League games decided on away goals rule</h2>
<p>Since its introduction in the game, theaway goalsregulation has always been a delicate matter, especially in the UEFA Champions League. For some, it has brought tears of joy, but for some, it has caused incredible heartbreak. <strong>Let’s take a look at theTop 5 Champions League games decided on away goals rule.</strong></p>
<h2>5. Juventus vs Porto (2020-21 season)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624570321722/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/pepe_of_porto_xrightx_attempts_to_clear_the_ball_whilst_under_pressure_from_alvaro_morata_of_juventus_xleftx__xgettyx.jpg_20222851.jpg" width="740" height="410"><figcaption>    Pepe of Porto (right) attempts to clear the ball whilst under pressure from Alvaro Morata of Juventus (left).

<p></p></div>
<p>Because of the regulation, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/juventus-t12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Juventus</a>were eliminated from this year’s Champions League campaign, for the second season in a row. The Italian team was held to a 4-4 aggregate tie by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/porto-t110856" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Porto</a> and left the competition with fewer away goals. Sergio Oliveira’s 115th-minute strike stunned Juventus, sending Porto through on away goals in an enthralling Champions League last-16 match. Two minutes later, Adrien Rabiot’s thunderous header gave the Italian champions hope.</p>
<p>Oliveira’s 19th-minute penalty gave Porto a 3-1 aggregate lead after Merih Demiral pulled down Porto’s Mehdi Taremi. After 63 minutes, Chiesa headed home a Juan Cuadrado cross to draw the game on aggregate. It appeared like Juventus would take advantage of their man advantage, but Porto fought brilliantly to force extra time when Oliveira’s goal clinched the tie.</p>
<h2>4. Inter vsMilan(2002-03 season)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624570332428/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/milan_players_xleftx_and_inter_players_xrightx_line-up_in_2003__xgettyx.jpg_20222851.jpg" width="740" height="410"><figcaption>    Milan players (left) and Inter players (right) line-up in 2003.

<p></p></div>
<p>The most dominant sides during the time of club football were Italian giants <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/inter-t127" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Inter</a>and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/milan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Milan</a>. Three of the four teams were Italian clubs including the Nerazzurri, the Rossoneri, and Juventus in the semi-finals of the Champions League in the 2002-03 season.</p>
<p>The Semi-Final tie in the season was the Milan derby, the Derby della Madonnina,in whichMilan took the first leg 0-0 in the home leg and scored a 1-1 goal in the second half to the finals against Juventus. Andriy Shevchenko opened the score for the official away side, only for the score to be equalized by Obafemi Martins.During that season, Milan won the final in Manchester after a successful penalty shoot-out againstJuventus.</p>
<h2>3. Tottenham vs Ajax (2018-19 season)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-61">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/tottenham-t142351" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tottenham</a>‘s 3-2 triumph against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ajax" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ajax</a> in Amsterdam saw them progress to the competition’s final by away goals in 2018-19, having previously overcome Manchester City in the same manner in the Quarter-Final.Lucas Moura scored the game-winning goal in the 96th minute to seal an incredible Tottenham comeback against Ajax and set up an all-English Champions League final versus Liverpool.</p>
<p>Spurs had the worst possible start in Amsterdam, down 1-0 from the first leg when a powerful fifth-minute header by 19-year-old Ajax captain Matthijs de Ligt increased the advantage for Erik ten Hag’s dynamic young team. Hakim Ziyech increased Ajax’s advantage on the night with a sweeping finish from a Dusan Tadic pass. Spurs were 3-0 down on aggregate, but in another tense semi-final, Mauricio Pochettino’s team struck twice in the second half.</p>
<h2>2. Paris Saint-Germain vs Bayern (2020-21 season)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-17">      <span class="item first"></span>   <span class="item second"></span>   <span class="item third"></span>  </div>
<p></p></div>
<p><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/psg-t16721" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paris Saint-Germain</a>has been the final team to advance in theChampions League based on away goals. In 2021, PSG matched <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/bayern-munich-t112" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bayern</a> 3-3 in theseries but proceeded to the Semi-Finals due to the greater number ofaway goals.In a thrilling second leg between the teams that met in the final last year, PSG were dangerous on the break, challenging visiting goalkeeper Manuel Neuer many times and hitting the crossbar twice via Neymar.</p>
<p>Bayern Munich, on the other hand, broke the stalemate and gave themselves hope of a comeback win when Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting climbed highest to follow David Alaba’s saved shot with a close-range header. With Robert Lewandowski out injured, the Germans lacked their customary ruthlessness up front and were unable to produce the second goal that would have extended their trophy defense.</p>
<h2>1. Chelsea vs Barcelona (2008-09 season)</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image">   <img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://bolavip.com/__export/1624570330769/sites/bolavip/img/2021/06/24/barcelona_celebrate_victory_against_chelsea_in_2009__xgettyx.jpg_20222851.jpg" width="740" height="410"><figcaption>    Barcelona players celebrate victory against Chelsea in 2009.

<p></p></div>
<p>This encounter cannot ever be forgotten by neither the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/chelsea-t200" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chelsea</a>, nor the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/barcelona-t11" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barcelona</a> supporters. After achieving a 0-0 draw in the first leg at the Nou Camp, Chelsea entered the second game at the Stamford Bridge.</p>
<p>However, the Blues performed very well, with some contentious decisions taken by referee Tom Ovrebo, Chelsea could not win the two-legged tie and hence was known by Chelsea fans as being “one of the most serious thefts in soccer history”.After the Michael Essien thunderbolt had given Chelsea the lead in the night it took a thrilling late score from Andres Iniesta to grab a late 1-1 draw.</p>

UEFA abolishes away goals rule: Top 5 Champions League games decided on the rule

UEFA abolishes away goals rule: Top 5 Champions League games decided on the rule - Bolavip US

<p>After 56 years, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/uefa" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>UEFA</strong></a> havedeclared that theaway goals rulewould be withdrawn from European <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer-t81579" target="_blank" rel="noopener">soccer</a> starting from the upcoming2021/2022season. The adjustment is being implemented throughout the mens’ and women’s <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Champions League</strong></a>, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/europa-league-t31" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Europa League</strong></a>, and the <strong>Europa Conference League.</strong></p>
<p>“The impact of the rule now runs counter to its original purpose as, in fact, it now dissuades home teams – especially in first legs -from attacking, because they fear conceding a goal that would give their opponents a crucial advantage. There is also criticism of the unfairness, especially in extra time, of obliging the home team to score twice when the away team has scored. It is fair to say that home advantage is nowadays no longer as significant as it once was,” said UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin.</p>
<p>“Taking into consideration the consistency across Europe in terms of styles of play, and many different factors which have led to a decline in home advantage, the UEFA Executive Committee has taken the correct decision in adopting the view that it is no longer appropriate for an away goal to carry more weight than one scored at home.”</p>

<h2>What is the away goals rule?</h2>
<p>The away goals rule is one of three FIFA-approved procedures for determining a game’s victor in the case of a tie, the other two being extra time and penalties. When the scores are level, the application of the away goals rule implies that any goals scored away from home essentially <strong>count double</strong> when the scores are level.</p>
<p>This rule is typically applied in ties with home and away legs, such as the knockout round of the Champions League. If the aggregate score is tied after two legs, the club with the most away goals is declared the winner. The away goals rule is most commonly used in <strong>two-leg matches</strong> where the aggregate scoredetermines the initial outcome.</p>
<p>In many tournaments, the away goals rule serves as the first tiebreaker in such circumstances, with a penalty shootout serving as the second tiebreaker if both teams have scored the same amount of away goals. The rules differ as to whether the away goals rule applies just at the end of normal time in the second leg or also in extra time. <strong>UEFA first used it in the 1965-66 European Cup Winners’ Cup.</strong></p>

<p></p></div>
<h2>How series will be defined from now on?</h2>
<p>UEFA has stated that if the scores are still equal after two legs of a two-legged knockout tournament, there would be two 15-minute periods of extra time, as is typical in many high-level football events across the world. If both teams score the same amount of goals, or if no more goals are scored during extra time, a <strong>penalty shootout </strong>will be held to determine which side advances to the next round.</p>
<p>Over the years, the away goals rule has produced several memorable moments in knockout matches, notably in the Champions League. <strong>Tottenham</strong>‘s 3-2 triumph against<strong> Ajax</strong> in Amsterdam saw them progress to the competition’s final by away goals in 2018-19, having previously overcome <strong>Manchester City</strong> in the same manner in the Quarter-Final.</p>
<p>The abolition of the away goals rule will take effect immediately and will be in effect for the start of the 2021-22 season.<br> UEFA has indicated that the rule change will apply to all UEFA club competitions, including men’s, women’s, and junior events. This includes the Champions League, Europa League, Women’s Champions League, UEFA Youth League, UEFA Super Cup, and the newly created Europa Conference League.</p>

<h2>Possible lineups in Portugal vs Germany</h2>
<p>Fernando Santos will probably line up a similar starting eleven from the previous round, with<strong>Nuno Mendes</strong> being the only concern so far as he trained separately on Thursday.

<p><strong>Pep Guardiola</strong> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/teams-who-have-never-won-champions-league-20201203-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Manchester City</strong></a> have moved another step close to the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-champions-league-bracket-the-road-to-the-2021-22-ucl-final-20220412-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>2021-22 UEFA Champions League</strong></a> final. The Citizensheld on to their home victory <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/man-city-eliminate-atletico-in-a-heated-match-funniest-memes-and-reactions-20220413-0032.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">over <strong>Atletico Madrid</strong></a> to advance to the last four and remain alive in Europe.</p>
<p>Another challenging task awaits for the Sky Blues, though, as theyhave set up a meeting against <strong>La Liga</strong> giants <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/uefa-champions-league-when-will-the-2021-22-ucl-semifinals-be-played-20220412-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Real Madrid</strong> in the semifinals</a> following an aggregate 1-0 win against <strong>Diego Simeone</strong>‘s side.</p>
<p>City are also on pace to win the <strong>Premier League</strong> title this season, but it’s not a secret that, for years, their priority has been the elusive continental prize. Guardiola <strong>has struggled to deliver the UCL trophy in Manchester so far, but how many times did he win it before?</strong> Check it out here.</p>
<h2>How many times has Pep Guardiola won the UEFA Champions League?</h2>
<p><strong>Barcelona’s best years probably were under Pep Guardiola</strong> between 2008 and 2012. A man ofthe house, he completely changed the club’s culture to buildwhat is regarded one of, if not the best teamin soccer’s history.</p>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Pep Guardiola has won two Champions League titles as a coach, both of themin charge ofBarcelona.</strong><strong>Manchester United</strong> were the victims of that fantastic team both times. <strong>The firstchampionship came in 2009</strong>when the Cules defeated2-0 the Red Devils with a squad headlined by the likesof <strong>Lionel Messi</strong>, <strong>Xavi</strong>, <strong>Iniesta</strong>, <strong>Samuel Eto’o</strong>, and <strong>Thierry Henry</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Guardiola’s second and latest European success so far camein the 2010-11</strong> campaign, in which Barcelona were crowned in great fashion beating 3-1 <strong>Alex </strong><strong>Ferguson</strong>‘s boys at <strong>Wembley </strong>after a semifinal win over<strong> Real Madrid.</strong></p>
<div style="text-align:center">

<p></p></div>
<p><strong>Since then, Pep couldn’t put his hands onthe Champions League trophy again</strong>. He couldn’t even reach the final for a long time – <strong>his Bayern Munich sidecame up short in the semifinalsevery time</strong>, and his Manchester City didn’t make it to the tournament decider until 2021.</p>
<p>But the Sky Blues’ aspirations came to an end when<strong>Kai Havertz</strong>gave Chelsea the edge, extending the Citizens’ drought in Europe. But Guardiola’s men have bounced back and are <strong>just two games away from reaching their second final in a row</strong>. Will they have a better ending this time?<span></span></p>
