Below is this week's segment – Soccer Overtime - Listen
In the postseason, games obviously can’t end in a tie.
Soccer – a sport famous for ties – settles a game tied at the end of regulation with two 10-minute overtime periods. There’s no golden goal or sudden victory – so if a game is still tied at the end of OT, it’s on to penalty kicks.
Each team selects five players from their rosters to participate, and the teams alternate kicks. The team that scores the most from their five kicks is the winner.
But what if we’re still tied at the end of five penalty kicks?
Then another set of five kickers is picked – none of the first five can be re-used – and it’s played sudden-victory style. The first team to score and stop their opponent is the winner.
