hom many minutes in soccer game?
365351
2-45 minute halves (they can be extended if an injury occurs, for example, if it takes 4 minutes to take a player off the field, then after 45 minutes of the half passes by, 4 more minutes are added on).\n\nIn matches where a winner must be determined (finals, semi finals, quarter finals...) and the game is tied after the first 90 minutes the game is then prolonged for 2 more 15-minute halves.  If the teams are still tied at the end of those 30 minutes then they go to 5-penalty shootouts per team.  Whoever scores more goal wins the game.  If after the first round of 5 penalties they are tied, then they move into second round but the first team to miss or have a shot blocked loses (provided that the other team scored its shot)...\n\nComplicated?? I think not.

First of all, you are using the correct terminology since you posted your question on the Football(soccer) forum, so everyone who's here should understand that.\nSecond, on my opinion it is a cultural thing, you do not need to get new cleats or suit up, or anything like that to have fun playing soccer. You just need a ball and a couple of rocks and you have a soccer field with a goal. You can play by yourself or with friends in the street, at the beach, anywhere. There are no social distinctions, so the "poor" has equal chances and can play even better than the "rich".\nStrategy, formations and mentallity are equally important, you mentioned Real Madrid with all the talent but Zaragoza can score them 6 goals. There are no scores, bets or odds written in stone.\nWhen national teams play against rival nations is like a stare of war for 90 minutes and it hurts losing against them.\nLast of all the Goal is an explosion, a relief, something you've expecte a whole week or a year and then it happens and you scream it out loud. And I rather wait for it 60 minutes than just say "yeah" 90 times during a game and not even remembering them. \nI recommend to you this book \nSoccer in Sun and Shadow, New Edition by Eduardo Galeano\nit talks so great about the sport.\nSo if you got bored watching a game or just want to see the highlights it is because either anyone has taken the time to explain to you the rules or you were probably watching an MLS game.

yes steaua dominated 25 mins but boro dominated 34 mins when steaua didn't reach the other side of the pitch.\nPersonal i shaked hands with cosmin olaroiu and he told me that the team shouldn't retreat.

It depends on the position they play.  A goalkeeper runs little.  A midfielder will run about 8 miles, a striker around 4-6 and a defender 2-4 in a typical game.

Here's a sure fire, can't miss suggestion for clearing space in the paint - Eat some pork & beans and sour kraut about  2 hours before your game...When the defense bodies up on you down in the post, BLAST 'EM!....and be sure to complain to the ref and blame someone else so you don't get a technical foul called on ya for being technically foul!

90 min, two periods of 45 min each and a half-time break of 15 min. \nafter each half the referee can give a few mins of extra time to make up for the time lost due to injuries, substitutions etc.

Someone is litterally pressing a button for each time the ball is hit. If you press the button for team A the time until the button is pressed for team B the ball is in team A's possession. All that time added together is a percentage of the total time played in the match. i.e. if 10 minutes have been played and team A has possession during 6.5 minutes the possession is team A 65% team B 35%.

Yes, 4.\n\nTeams must have at least 7 players on the pitch or the game is abandoned.

the referee didn't add on the 8 minutes...it was decided by the match officials during the match as there were a lot of paused interruptions during the match..they have to add the 8 minutes to make up for the loss time to fulfill the 90 minutes game.

If you're talking about gridiron, I don't like it because 90 minutes of footy takes about 5 hours, the players wear too much protective gear, and it's incomprehensible. But it's still better than soccer. At least there is some scoring.

Fitness above all else is the key today. \n\nPositioning you can gain from exposure in games. Playing advantage is good but remember the 'double jeopardy rule', your decision to play advantage must not allow the affected to lose the advantage they would derived from a free-kick.\n\nAnd 'Law 19' (The unwritten rule, use your discretion wisely, nobody goes to games to see referees or hear his whistle, don't let yourself become to carried away with your powers) "Law 19" also doesn't mean you must punish every offense with a card, award every decision in the box with a penalty, it also tells you to protect goal-keepers, even if it is slightly unfair to the attacking team.\n\nDo not be over-bearing to players but go not be cowed into taking proper decisions, a goal scoring oppurtunity denied is a red card offense whether in the first or last minutes. These kind of fundamental laws, you must adhere strictly. Others where there is a grey line, think of promoting the game more and is where you can use your discretion.\n\nAnd lastly, get over your mistakes, every ref makes them.
