The Aggregate/Away Goals Rule in Soccer/Football

304 viewsOther

I’m playing a custom tournament in FIFA and I’m confused. I know how the legs work and stuff, like one of my teams in a different tie had a 3-1 agg to catch up on, they managed to win 4-2 on “away goals.” Is that just the actual scoreline, since I had already tied to aggregate?

Now, I’m playing a different tie. I had a 2-1 advantage coming out of the first leg. Now I’m playing the second leg, it’s tied on aggregate 5-5 and I’m behind 4-3, but the commentators keep saying I’ll be going through. I’m confused 😭

In competitions where away goals are used as a tiebreaker, If the aggregate scores are tied, the team who scored the most goals away from home wins. So (home team v away team):

Team A 2:1 Team B

Team B 1:0 Team A

Aggregate score is 2:2 – Team B wins on away goals, because they scored 1 goal away from home, while Team A didn’t score any.
