Fictional Extra Time (FET) and Away Goals

In the knockout stages of friendly competitions (i.e., the Youth Cup and Shield, and the World Club Cup and Shield), if the scores are level at full-time, we follow standard rules for deciding the winners.

One Leg Ties

Fictional Extra Time decides the winner:

• One goal scored for the team with most possession.
• One goal scored for the team with the most shots on target.
• One goal scored for the team who scored first in normal time.

If scores are still level, the team with the most “possession + shots on target” gets one extra goal (see original FET rule: https://smtop100.blog/youth-cup-format-rules/youth-cup-knock-out/)

Two Leg Ties

The team with the most Away Goals is the winner.

If the tie is still level (i.e., both legs ended with the same scoreline), then Fictional Extra Time in the second leg decides the winner, as above.
