That’s a point I also have always been confused about, what is “extra time” and what is “overtime”? In German, the extra 30 minutes added after a draw in a knock-out game is called “Verlängerung”, literally “extension” or “prolonging”. The time that is added to compensate for injury or VAR breaks is called “Nachspielzeit”, literally “post game time”. Which is which in English football lingo?
Usually “added time” is the 90 + X and overtime is the extra periods in the knock out rounds.
Stoppage time is the one I’m familiar with….
Extra time is the extra 30 minutes added to cup games.
Injury time is the added time at the end of the half to account for events, despite its name not just injuries.
I think that second one is now called stoppage time. Sorry for getting the lingo wrong above.
Yeah, stoppage time is the least confusing. THat’s right. Says right in the name.
So extra time and overtime are synonymous, both meaning the 30 minutes added to a knock-out game?
Does anyone know for how long Peacock in the USA will stream the matches live? I’m delaying paying the monthly fee until I have to so I’ll have a bit of Peacock subscription after the world cup is over. Just this week or into next week?
I read them as synonymous. I guess some purists might only recognize whatever the laws of the game say.
I read that Peacock is streaming the Spanish Language broadcast, so for the duration of the tournament.
Extra time is the British English term; American English tends to go with overtime (borrowing from our non-association football). Both mean the 30-minute added tiebreaker.
In Spanish we say tiempo añadido (added time) or prolongación (obvious) for the 90 minutes plus. The 15 + 15 minutes extra time (?) are called prórroga, and those 15 + 15 can have additional tiempo añadido or prolongación minutes as well. It is nice to have a word for those 15 + 15 minutes that is not used in any other context, except, of course, other sports, so there is no confusion. Because it seems the English notation is confusing.
I mean, if I don’t watch the games, I must say something about whatever, right?
So the game that was to decide, by common wisdom, the second place in this group, because the first will go to England, has finished in a draw. That leaves everything in the air, but if my maths are correct 4 out of 6 third placed teams will qualify as well for the last 16, so both USA and Wales could qualify without beating England if they beat Iran hard enough. The USA vs Iran comes up remarcably often in the World Cups, btw., does it not?
Extrazeit und Überzeit? Aw, come on, gimme a break. Extrabreit is more like it. Cheap joke, I know.
Thanks to all! It took me five years on this board to start posting in football threads, because though I’m quite good at English, football lingo is another beast I didn’t learn in school. I learned it by following the threads, but I’m still not very competent, because football has so many terms. And then they often differ in American and British English. What is an “Abstauber”? What’s a “Kerze”? Or a “Blutgrätsche”?
No, only the top 2 advance. There are 8 groups.
Oh! I missed two goups! Sorry, I take everything back.
Yeah, no problem. Euros tend to have the 3rd place team advance. Somewhat weird there’s not a more standard format, but all the confederations have different # of teams.
But yeah, most likely ways forward are either 1) draw against England + beat Iran or 2) both teams lose to England and go for better GD.
A tap in or a sitter. But both are not perfect translations, they are not a perfect semantical overlap. A tap in is closer, a sitter is often used with the words “he missed a”, with some agony added in the voice with some pulling of hair. You cannot say in German that somebody missed an Abstaubertor (well, you could, but people don’t, do they?).
An up and under (borrowed from rugby).
Maybe you already thought of the next WC in 2026, which will have 48 participants so that eight 3rd places must qualify for the knock-outs.
Thanks, @Pardel-Lux . Watch out that I don’t come back at you to write my German-English football dictionary. 
No, but thank you for motivating me to be less lazy and dig it up. I just read this:
So Thursday or Friday, you gotta pay $5 to get the month free.
