FIFA games last 90 minutes, and the clock also never stops. The referee keeps track of time that is wasted and adds it on at the end of each half. These few minutes are known as injury time or stoppage time. They usually last 2-5 minutes.
There is also 30 minutes of extra time, or 15 minute at each half added in overtime.

the regulation statistics. Do not separate the statistics. Each attempt to
score from the 25-yard line by both teams constitutes one overtime pe-
riod. If neither team scores with a possession, record a zero for each team
for that period.
There are 3 types of additional time added in Association Football, none of which are called "overtime."
Extra time is two, 15-minute periods added to the end of a tied match where a winner must be determined.
Stoppage time is time added onto the end of any half (or extra time period) by the referee to make up for wasted time.
Extended time is time added onto the end of a half (or extra time period) in order to complete the taking of a penalty kick.
It is a little complicated with (sub rules), which are geared towards the defensive team touching the ball and fumbling on their side of the line of scrimmage consisting of a possession, but the general idea is that once both teams have had possession once (or the opportunity for possession as defined by the sub rules), then it is sudden death. Unless the receiving team scores a touchdown on the first drive. In that case they will win. Or if the receiving team loses a point for a safety in which case they will lose.
For example: Team A receives and scores a field goal. Team B then receives the ball and scores a field goal - game continues untill next score. Team B does not score - game over Team A wins since both teams have possessed the ball and Team A is ahead in the score. Team B scores a touchdown. Team B wins.
The opportunity to possess is considered a possession if the defensive side actually possesses the ball on their side of the line of scrimmage and subsequently fumbles the ball back to the offensive team. Then both teams have had possession and the next score wins even though Team B's offence never actually took the field.
Yes. Traditionally in a tournament, or cup game, if the teams are still level and there are no replays, teams will go into extra time. This is half an hour of play split into two halves of 15 minutes, with the teams switching ends at the break
Great answer! You hit it on the nose. (A simpler explanation would be that they CAN go into overtime)Add your answer:
