(A)If you play soccer IRL, you don't know the exact time the game will end. So why should a video game be any different?

(B) Playing five minute halfs with two minutes of stoppage time does not make senese to me either. That's a 40% increase in the time.

IMO online head to head halfs are the perfect amount of time and that's what I play most of the time.

At least IRL you have some idea because they announce how much stoppage time and the clock keeps counting.

In FIFA you only get +1, +2, +3, etc. so basically you have no earthly idea. If they just adopted the ESPN style bug (where it has the +3 and keeps counting above 45:00 and 90:00) I'd be ecstatic. It's just really annoying to have no clue especially considering the time is scaled
