Agreed. Although I'd just allow additional substitutions in overtime. The rosters are plenty big--20 or something. It's the 3-sub rule that creates problems. Let them have an additional sub in each overtime period.
Another more general solution would be to enlarge the goal. Make it a bit wider, say 9 metres instead of 8. The extra 3+ feet would increase scoring (a bit, we could go to 10m) and reduce the chance of ties, especially 0-0.
