Football in general really needs to sort out what it’s doing at corners

Every single corner has become a riot and they’re having a devil of a job achieving consistency.

I reckon they either need to move to zero contact (which might be impossible) or utter rule free chaos for 5 seconds before/after a corner.

We might see more goals like this.
