i think they are saying the losing team after extra time still gets a point. The golden point being a bonus point

I doubt that it will ever happen over here as having extra time for league games simply isn't the done thing over here. The only sports that do that over here are probably Basketball and Ice Hockey and that will be because of the American influence.

But why?. A draw is a perfectly standard and rational outcome of any sporting contest (unless you're an American, or an Australian who wants to be America, apparently)

No, the golden point is the first team to score a point, in extra time, wins.
