The best proposal to resolve tie games at the World Cup: Have the penalty shoot-out directly after full time, and the winner of the shoot-out gets a half a goal advantage. THEN play the 30 extra minutes - if the team behind scores a legitimate goal, then they win. If no team scores in extra time, the PK shoot-out winner wins.
