Extra-time at Anfield

[mooks]

If the score is 1-0 at the end of normal time at Anfield, does the away goals rule count in extra-time?

 

I seem to recall that when we played SHeffield United in the Worthington Cup semi-final a few years back that the away goals rule only applied during normal time.

Oh, so it was the other way round

 

Well, it doesn't make sense to me if one team has 120 minutes to get an away goal while the other team gets 90 minutes.

Yeah but we got the chance to score an away goal in the first ninety minutes...

The regulations (available here) state:

 

"Article 5

Away goals, extra time

 

...extra time of two periods of 15 minutes shall be played at the end of the second leg. If, during extra time, both teams score the same number of goals, away goals count double (i.e. the visiting club qualifies). If no goals are scored during extra time, kicks from the penalty mark determine which club qualifies for the next stage"

Just in case anyone's interested, I found the answer to my own question on uefa.com.

 

Yes, the away goals rule applies in extra-time

 

 

Penalty shoot-out

If the away-goals rule proves inconclusive, extra time of two periods of 15 minutes is played after the second match. If during extra time both teams score the same number of goals, away goals count double (ie the visiting team advances). If no goals are scored during extra time, the winner is decided by penalty kicks. The two teams that advance from the knock-out round contest the final, held as a single match in May.

League Cup has weird rules. If the first leg ends in 0-0 and the second game ends in 1-1 there's extra time. If there's no further score in extra time the away team wins. So why not declare the away team winners after full time? It doesn't make sense.
