At this point they might as well just stop the clock.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Be less annoying the waiting for the 90 minutes to run out and then be given another 12. In the Saudi game it seemed  like the ref was dragging it out for Argentina to score.

Well, yeah. I, obviously, think that the solution to soccer is to stop the clock.

World Cup nerds, a little help here:

So in exciting Group F action, Morocco and Croatia tied 0-0.  But Canada is in Group F, and realistically to make the next round have to finish ahead of both teams.

So was a 0-0 final a good thing or a bad thing for Canada?
