It was tied 1-1 after 90 minutes of regulation. So they played 30 minutes of overtime - no sudden death. Brazil scored early in overtime, making it 2-1. The clock never stops, but the referees adds "stoppage time", if the game stops due to an injury. Only the ref knows how much time is left. The clock just kept going past the 122 minute mark, and everyone was waiting for the game to end. Then... Goal!!! Less than a minute after the ensuing kickoff, the whistle finally blew, and it went to penalty kicks. It was better then euchre or even cribbage.
