                                       DURATION



The game is divided into two periods of 45 minutes each. There is a half time break of 15 minutes between the two periods. The end of the time is known as full time. The clock is not stopped during the time when the ball is out of play.

An allowance is made for the time lost through substitutions, injured players requiring attention, or other stoppages. This added time is known as stoppage time or injury time. Only referee can signal the end of the math. The players and spectators are informed of this time by a person holding up a board showing this number.

If the game is tied at the end of the full time, it may go into extra time, which consist of two further 15 minutes period. Goals scored during extra time periods count toward the final score of the game.
