You don't. You're relying on someone's judgement of extra time...when you could rely on a clock for that.

With 33 seconds being the difference between a win or a loss...you'd think people would want to be exact with something that is so simple to do exactly.

  - BUT the game was not played with an apparent stoppage time you do remember the game till right? - Dándukini Jun 26, 11:49 5
    - Your example is a great one about the timekeeping flaws. For all we know, too much time was given and it altered the outcome of a World Cup match. -- nm - David Jun 26, 12:00
    - I'll bang my head on this wall one more time...I don't care about what the Portuguese would have liked or what the Americans would have liked... - Jim Jun 26, 11:54 3
