This is Damian from the Languagecaster team and I hope you are all doing well. Welcome to this week's football phrase, which is when we look back at an expression from the weekend's football. And today we explain the phrase, 'to force extra time' and this comes after some thrilling UEFA Nations League <a href="https://languagecaster.com/football-language-tie/">ties</a> over the weekend.<br /> <br /> http://gty.im/79053048<br /> Extra time; Stoppage time; Injury time; Additional time<br /> <br /> <br /> Stinger: You are listening to Languagecaster (in Dutch)<br /> <br /> DF: Now, before we explain this week's expression let's do a quick review and check what is the difference between the following football terms: additional time; <a href="https://languagecaster.com/football-glossary-extra-time/">extra time</a>; <a href="https://languagecaster.com/football-glossary-injury-time/">injury time</a> and <a href="https://languagecaster.com/football-glossary-stoppage-time/">stoppage time</a>. What are the differences? Which one is slightly different from the others?<br /> <br /> Well, <a href="https://languagecaster.com/weekly-football-phrase-aet-after-extra-time/">extra time</a> is different from the other three as they all relate to time added on by the referee to the 'regular time' (so, the 90 minutes). This could be because of stoppages during the game such as goals, <a href="https://languagecaster.com/football-language-video-assistant-referee-var/">VAR</a> checks and <a href="https://languagecaster.com/main-listening-report-the-language-of-injuries/">injuries</a>. Extra time is played in knock out games when the two teams are level at the end of the match (e.g. 2-2) and is used then to decide the winner. And extra time lasts for 15 minutes each half; so an extra 30 minutes of playing time.<br /> <br /> How do you say extra time in your language? Can you make a sentence with this phrase? How about added or stoppage (or injury) time? Can you think of any famous occasions when these phrases have been used? Has your team ever won in extra time?
