FOOTBALL NEEDS MORE MATCHES LIKE THIS

I'm glad football can still have matches like this. The sport is being threatened by negative, purely defensive play like what Greece displayed four years ago. It is too cynical and pragmatic and I think bad for the sport even FIFA expressed apprehension about it during the last World Cup. It has been suggested that FIFA give a bonus point for a team scoring three goals or more like in rugby. In football, a win is three points and a draw one point. Surely, a bonus point is a huge help and would encourage more attacking play. FIFA should really consider the suggestion, for fans' sake.
