How is it 'scripting' when most of the games have tonnes of injury time? This is how they're applying the injury time consistently to address the problem of time wasting etc at World Cups. They've been very transparent about this.

They're taking the same approach in Premier League and EFL games this season. Sheffield Wednesday vs Southampton the other week had 15 minutes of injury time too.

Just accept you made a ludicrous argument and were wrong.

The PL also has a bad reputation for exaggerated overtime, compared to all other European leagues.
