What is extra time?
In football, if a match is drawn after the usual 90 minutes, extra time is played to decide a winner. It typically consists of two 15-minute halves. This happened in the World Cup final mentioned, where Spain beat Argentina 1-0 in extra time, avoiding a penalty shootout and ensuring a decisive outcome.
