Towards More Fair Football (by more goals)

In Basketball, Handball, Volleyball & Some few other games, the match result (score) - almost always - reflects which team was playing better..

In Football (soccer), many times, the match score is amazing, and even unfair: 

Many times, the team that played better -technically- looses, while the "less efficient" - yet the (lucky) - team wins. 

Part of this unfairness, is due to the scanty number of gaols, which could be scored uasually, in football matches. 

But there are also, other contributing factors, related to the game itself i.e., its design & rules.

That is why, suggestions to modify the game rules, are usually reasonable. 

However, suggestions in favor of increasing the possibilities of gaol scoring, must not affect the nature of the game radically, as it is the game, topped with the most popularity, all over the world. 


The Modification is as follows: 

-----------------------------

"The offside rule would not apply, to any player, Except the SCORER : 

The player who is scoring a goal, must not be in an offside position, while scoring, but he/she can be offiside while recieving a pass.

That would increase the rate of "goal scoring" in matches. 

Accoding to the outcome, of experimental testing on this modification, it would be either approved, or might require additional "tuning" to get the best outcome. 

Such additional changes might be as:  

"The offside rule would not apply to any player, Except for the Scorer player, PROVIDED THAT

THE PASS WAS INITIATED (STARTED) FROM "AFTER THE MIDLINE":  

Meaning that : the pass should be initiated in the "playground area of the team, being attacked"... 

This is just an example...
