A standard professional football (soccer) game lasts 90 minutes, divided into two halves of 45 minutes each. In addition, there is usually a 15-minute halftime break. Referees add stoppage time to compensate for pauses in play, meaning the total game time typically lasts around 105 minutes. In knockout tournaments, if the match is tied, extra time consisting of two 15-minute halves may be played, extending the game to about 120 minutes, and possibly followed by a penalty shootout. Thus, a football game generally lasts between 90 and 120 minutes depending on stoppages and extra time.

For American football (NFL), the official playtime is 60 minutes, divided into four 15-minute quarters. However, due to timeouts, reviews, commercial breaks, and halftime (about 12 minutes), the average NFL game usually lasts around 3 hours and 12 minutes.

Summary:

Football Type| Regulation Play Time| Typical Total Duration| Halftime Duration

Soccer Extra Time| 90 + 30 minutes| Up to ~120 minutes (plus penalties)| 5 minutes (before ET)

This applies to their respective standard professional matches. The duration can vary in youth, amateur, or special matches.
