Time added to international games to extend the game to make up for "stoppages" such as injuries, substitution, time wasting, lost ball, etc. This is added by the center referee & he is the only one who knows how much "stoppage time" is being added &, therefore, the only one who knows exactly when the game will end. This is also mistakenly called "Injury Time".

90 minutes\n45 minute halves each not including stoppage time (extra time due to penalites and injuries).\nStoppage time could be a few minutes.

Soccer. Soccer is very fast-paced and has the least rules of them all. As in other sports, when you play casually my friends usually make up new rules to their benefit (No backcourting! 5 Mississipis! No, you were the last one to touch it before it was out!) Soccer has the least excuses in which to make up rules over. Besides, in soccer you're always running, jumping, tackling, blocking, etc. You don't stand around all day waiting for something to come to you (a la baseball, although the goalkeeper goes through the same thing).

A standard adult football match consists of two periods (known as halves) of 45 minutes each. There is usually a 15-minute break between halves, known as half-time. The end of the match is known as full-time.Most games simply end after these two halves, either with one team winning or with a draw (a tied game). However, some games, particularly knockout competition matches, provide for extra time in the event of a tied result at the end of the two halves of normal time: two further periods of 15 minutes are played. Until recently, IFAB have experimented with various forms of 'sudden death' extra time (see below for details); however, these experiments have now been abandoned.\n\nIf the score is still tied after extra time, some competitions allow the use of kicks from the penalty mark (colloquially known as penalty shoot-outs) to determine a winner. Other competitions may require the game to be replayed.\n\nNote that goals scored during extra time periods count towards the final score of the game, unlike kicks from the penalty mark which are only used to decide the team that progresses to the next part of the tournament (with goals scored not making up part of the final score).

from the second round on, golden goal rule applies.  If after ninety minutes the teams are tied, two more periods of 15 mins are played.  If at the end of the 30 mins, they are still tied, then the game is decided by penalty kicks.  If, however, one team scores at any point in the 15 mins periods, the game is over.

That number represents the minute of the game at which they scored the goal.  If, for example, the number says 71', that means the goal was scored 71 minutes into the game!\n\nThat's all there is to it!

The 4th Official does keep track on the time & then adds an appropriate number of minutes to the end of the game. Football it still looked upon as an 'art' rather than a scientific sport and so everything has to be done with a bit of passion rather than techinal ability.\n\nAlso, what do you stop the watch for - delayed throws, falls, trips, fouls, thinking, bouncing the ball (from the keeper)?

Half-time goes for 15 minutes Beth.\n\nYou've probably already worked out that each half is 45 minutes plus any stoppage time during the half. The exact amount of stoppage time is determined by the referee, we only see a reasonable estimate on our screens.\n\nVarious offences can carry a range of penalties for an individual player. Ranging from an indirect free kick, a direct free kick (either of which can result in a yellow card or a red card).\n\nA yellow card is a caution, with a second yellow card offence during a game resulting in a red card.\n\nIf the offence is serious enough (eg a two footed tackle that could result in a broken leg) then an immediate red card can be issued.\n\nA red card means that the player is immediately sent off. During the World Cup finals this also results in a one match suspension.\n\nDuring normal league type matches a red card is dealt with by a judiciary panel that can apply a suspension of more than one match even up to total banning of a player for multiple red card offences during a season.\n\nI have tried to explain this as logically as I can, I hope it helps you out.\n\nYou will probably find that your sons play under some slightly modified rules at this stage, but will play under full FIFA rules when they are older.

Four 15 minute quarters with a 15-minute halftime. \nThe clock stops for out-of-bounds plays or incomplete passes only in the last minute of each half or when the referee deems it necessary for penalties, injuries or timeouts. \nEach team is allowed three (3) time-outs per half.
