How many minutes in a football game?
Normally a football match is played for 90 minutes (45 minutes a half). After 45 minutes there is a break of 15 minutes to start the second half of 45 minutes. This duration is for the professional football match. If the match is drawn during the normal time of 90 minutes, to decide the match an extra time of 30 minutes is allowed for the teams which were two halves of 15 minutes each. In some cases, the extra 30 minutes are played on a sudden-death basis which means as soon as a team scored the goal the match is finished. If there is no result in the extra 30 minutes then each team is awarded 5 penalties to get the result of the match.
