Now, the away goals rule is intended to encourage the away team to be more aggressive. In football, at least, it sometimes leads to a nervous first leg: the home team is unwilling to commit large numbers of players to attack lest they concede a goal, whilst the away team attempts to defend and snatch an away goal to aid them in the second leg. Such tactics arguably make the second leg more exciting, after a low-scoring first leg leaves both sides with a chance to win. There are sometimes debates over whether the away goals rule gives an unfair advantage to the team playing away first — with the other team squandering their home advantage in the first leg due to away goal fears — and this may be a factor in its somewhat patchy adoption for competitions.</p> <p>There is also the issue that if extra time is played in the second leg, the away team gets an extra 30 minutes to take advantage of the away goals rule. This can be countered by the fact that in extra time, the home team has the advantage of playing the extra 30 minutes at home.</p> <p>Anecdotal evidence certainly suggests that most teams feel an away goal puts them in the driving seat, such as Liverpool being able to draw 1–1 at Arsenal in the 2008 UEFA Champions League quarterfinals; Liverpool did eliminate Arsenal to advance to the semifinals.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></a></sup></p> <p>Many commentators have described the importance of a team being away to score an away goal, even when losing that leg of the tie, as it mathematically does give that team a chance to redeem itself on home soil by leveling the tie on aggregate while using the away goal as a tiebreaker.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span>[</span>3<span>]</span></a></sup> For example in the 2007 UEFA Champions League round of 16, while Bayern Munich lost the first leg 3–2 at Real Madrid, Bayern later won 2-1 at home to level the tie on aggregate, but it was Bayern's away goals scored during their first leg loss that let them advance.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span>[</span>4<span>]</span></a></sup> In a recent instance, at the 2013 UEFA Champions League semifinals, despite falling 4-1 in the first leg at Dortmund, Real Madrid would be able to advance if at home it managed to hold Dortmund to 3-0. (Real Madrid did score two goals in the last ten minutes to win the second leg 2–0 but were unable to score the third goal that would have sent them through to the finals.) In the other semifinal, however, as Barcelona was shutout at Bayern Munich 4–0, commentators have considered Barcelona essentially eliminated as Bayern could seal the tie by scoring one away goal even if Barcelona managed to score five goals.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span>[</span>5<span>]</span></a></sup></p> <p>The away goals rule results in the "lead" of the two legged tie swinging back and forth. For instance in the 2005 UEFA Champions League round of 16 between Barcelona and Chelsea, Barcelona was ahead on aggregate after a 2–1 win in the first leg at home. During the second leg held in London, Chelsea managed to first score three straight goals to take the lead on aggregate (4–2), but Barcelona responded with two goals to level the aggegate score at 4–4 while taking the lead on away goals (2–1). Chelsea managed to score again, though, to advance on aggregate 5-4.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span>[</span>6<span>]</span></a></sup></p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Usage">Usage</span><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Away_goals_rule&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Usage">edit</a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></h2> <p>The away goals rule is applied in many football competitions that involve two-leg fixtures, including the knockout stages of the <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Champions_League" title="UEFA Champions League">UEFA Champions League</a>, <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Europa_League" title="UEFA Europa League">UEFA Europa League</a>, <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAF_Champions_League" title="CAF Champions League">CAF Champions League</a>, <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAF_Confederation_Cup" title="CAF Confederation Cup">CAF Confederation Cup</a> and any two-legged playoffs in qualification for the <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIFA_World_Cup" title="FIFA World Cup">FIFA World Cup</a> or <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_European_Championship" title="UEFA European Championship">European Championships</a>. <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Soccer" title="Major League Soccer">Major League Soccer</a> in the U.S. and Canada introduced the away goals rule in the <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MLS_Cup_Playoffs" title="MLS Cup Playoffs">MLS Cup Playoffs</a>, in which the conference semifinals and finals (the quarterfinals and semifinals of the overall tournament) are two-legged, for the first time in <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Major_League_Soccer_season" title="2014 Major League Soccer season">2014</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-MLS_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MLS-7"><span>[</span>7<span>]</span></a></sup> The rule was first applied in this competition when the <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Sounders_FC" title="Seattle Sounders FC">Seattle Sounders</a> defeated <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FC_Dallas" title="FC Dallas">FC Dallas</a> in the 2014 Western Conference Semifinals.</p> <p>In <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CONMEBOL" title="CONMEBOL">CONMEBOL</a> competitions before 2005, for example the <a href="/web/20150919152637/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copa_Libertadores_de_Am%C3%A9rica" title="Copa Libertadores de América" class="mw-redirect">Copa Libertadores</a>, CONMEBOL used neither the away goals rule nor extra time in any of its competitions.
