--- Quote ---In a “Face Off” teams will go head to head in a challenge and can’t leave until they’ve successfully beat another team. The last team there will also have to serve a pre-determined penalty before they get to move on.
“It has the potential to dramatically shake up the positioning in the ‘Race’ more so than I think other challenges because you can sloppily get your way through something but if you lose this one, you’re sticking around until the next team shows up," says Montgomery.
The challenge is an “Amazing Race” first and exclusive to the Canadian edition.
“We invented it, ‘The Face Off.’ Of course we put a hockey spin on it,” he adds with a laugh.

HaMerotz LaMillion had the Double Battle since S2 so 2012 I think?
fwiw the Double Battle was -also- better since the tasks weren't just sport related :angel
Alenaveda:
TARLA has also a similar confrontation during the fourth leg (Colombia) of the second season, in 2010. Although officially was an Intersection, teams had to play a voleyball match one against the other, where the losers has to keep playing until beating another team and the one who lost the last match also had to serve a time penalty (15 minutes) before receiving the next clue.
