Penalty kicks have a certain mystique to them, but is a crappy way to determine the outcome, particularly in a Final ... Better to decide the game in the course of normal play – perhaps “Golden goal” (sudden death) after the first OT, or deuce-goal in extra time.

The game should be decided by a “golden goal”...

Every 5 minutes into overtime, each team has to remove a player...

I feel the SAME way. There is something exciting about them ... but to play that long and it’s decided on 10 or less kicks. I say play sudden death.
