If there's a rule that you have to provide food for the visitors after the match,there should also be a rule that 'win or lose' they come in.

What a crazy game. 0-3 down at half time, an early second half lifeline for 3-1, then to concede a penalty for 4-1 down. we then turn on the style and score 4 times to lead 5-4 with 6 minutes to go only to concede again and almost gift a 6th in stoppage time! Football eh?!.
