- alkonaut 5y agoI don't think it's necessarily true they have always counted the way they have even though the "rules" for counting theem have always been the same.
- ID1452319 5y agoI think the reason is because there is more at stake. Take last night for example. The defender busted a gut to get back to try and cut out the cross, even though the chances of doing so were minimal - the end result being he put it into his own net. In a normal league game the defender would likely have just accepted his team's fate and Sterling would have had an easy tap in.
