Possibly, enabling teams to score 3 goals in one half (with a win in 7 rounds or less)? Plus possible amendments to the numbers of rounds required to score a goal at different stages (e.g. make it harder in the first-half and easier in the second half? Plus, introducing the away goals rule? Also, possibly flat rate spoils in extra-time as subsitutes can have varying degrees of impact against tired opponents.
Spoiler
If I win in the tenth round, how many goals do I score?
1 goal - 'within 10 rounds' is intended to mean 'before the start of round 10'.
