Game tying goal feels better than game winning goal

Anyone else feel like game tying goals in the waning moments actually feel better than game winning goals?  even though such goals are only worth 1 point, whereas game-winning goals are worth two.  It just feels so crappy watching a losing game about to get nothing and then all of a sudden, you're ecstatic to get a point.  Game-winning goals are obviously nice too but you don't get such the swing in emotion.

Think I might need an interpreter for this, read it three times and still haven't a scooby what you're on about!!

I think TheForge is making the argument that a tying goal in stoppage time feels better than a game-winning goal.

It's called an equaliser    you yanks and you're bastardising of our language 

And he's talking sh*te too!

"Equalizer" has a zee in it. As does "bastardizing"

A hundred times no. An equaliser makes me feel relief most of the time, a winning goal makes me feel joy. I prefer joy over relief. I prefer wins over draws.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

An entirely negative proposition.
A supporter by definition aspires to a winning endgame, a feeling of 'relief' at not getting defeated is most certainly not a preferred emotion when compared to the elation of a resounding win.

I much prefer game winning goals. I struggle to get elated at equalising goals especially in games that we should be winning. I just feel sh*te that we have dropped two points. The West Brom game was a bit of an exception because I was delighted with what Klopp did after the match.

Lallana's goal was probably the most I've celebrated a goal this season. That was amazing. Had that been an equaliser, no way would I have felt the same.

An equalizer a better feeling than a winner? I'm going to let the "Lock Topic" function answer that.

I'd rather a winning goal and the extra 2 points than the "emotion" of a last minute equalizer.
