Situation puzzleHalf a point
In the 1940s, a real football game in Brazil ended with an unusual score of 0.5 - 0. What happened?
When the score was 0-0, a penalty kick was awarded. The attacker runs up and strikes... and one of the seams of the ball, which at that time was hand-made, burst: the inner rubber bubble flew into the gate, and the outer leather case rolled out of the gate. The referee’s decision was: “half a goal.”
Since no more goals were scored, the game ended with a score of 0.5 - 0.
