Be fair, there’s a lot more scoring in basketball than soccer.

But what if in American Football, touchdowns were only worth 1 point instead of 7, then Football scores really wouldn’t be all that much different than soccer scores.

And I also don’t see these people complaining about low scoring in baseball or hockey.

In these other sports they decide tie games in real ways rather than stupid ways.

The way it should be done in soccer is to take the goalies out of the game and play for 10 minutes.

American football has intermediate scoring, field goals. Basketball has intermediate scoring, the 3 point line.

Soccer needs an intermediate scoring scheme. The one I like is for 10 minutes after a player gets red-carded, you add 1 meter to each side of the goal posts. You can shoot goals from mid-field.
