Additional Time
アディショナルタイム
Additional Time — Time added at the end for stoppages. Formerly ‘loss time.’
1💬 In a nutshell
“The ‘+5’ on the fourth official's board — where the drama usually happens.”
2🎬 See it move
An original tactics board (blue = the team in focus, red = the opponent; attacking left to right). The board animates on its own.

3🔍 Why it matters — what to watch for
It compensates for time lost to subs, injuries, VAR, and over-celebrating (!). Lately measured strictly, so around 10 minutes is no longer rare. “A stoppage-time winner” is a football storytelling staple.
On the call you'll hear“Additional time is five minutes! This game isn't over!”
