The Football association has introduced some rules which will be applied to those matches which are a draw. The world cup extra time rules are necessary for the fans to know so they can enjoy the world cup 2010.
These rules are very simple. If the 90 minutes of the match between any two teams are over with the score being equal another extra 15 minutes will be given to those teams to play. If one team makes a goal and finishes the extra time that team wins the match. Otherwise another 15 minutes extra time is given. And if both the teams fail to make any goal the winner is decided through penalty shootouts. The rule of the golden goal is no more present in these series. Only the extra times of 15 minutes and penalty shootouts are carried out in the case of having a draw. Yesterday’s match between USA and Ghana was very amazing which followed these rules. The world cup extra time rules have decided the rightful winners of all the matches that were tied in the world cup. It will continue till the final match of the series.
