College soccer has slightly different rules than many other soccer leagues. College soccer allows for unlimited substitutions, although players are not allowed to reenter the game after being removed in the first half, and are limited to one reentry in the second half and overtimes. If a match is tied after regulation, two 10-minute golden goal overtimes follow. If neither team scores, the match ends in a draw. College soccer also does not have stoppage or injury time. The referee signals to a timekeeper for the clock to be stopped on injuries, substitutions, and when he feels a team is wasting time. The clock counts down as opposed to up, and a period is over immediately when the clock reads 0:00, even if a shot is in flight. The golden goal was a method used in football (soccer) to decide the result of games in elimination matches which end in a draw after the end of ordinary time (90 minutes). ...
