Because I understand the circumstances in which it was implemented, but you can't deny that if Liverpool score an early goal in Manchester next week, the tie is effectively over. I can't really say that's the way it ought to be either.

the League Cup has it right IMO: Away goals only count after extra time.

That said: wow! I did NOT expect this! This City ARE a great side.
