This page opens with the timer already set to 90 minutes. Press Start or hit the spacebar and it begins; when time is up the alarm rings and the disk blinks. You can always drag the disk to a different time.
A full match of playing time
Two halves of 45 minutes make 90 minutes of playing time under IFAB Law 7, not counting half-time or added time. This page runs the 90 minutes straight through.
For a match with half-time and a whistle at each stage, the soccer timer splits it into halves for you.
A long session in two halves
Ninety minutes is a lot for one sitting. The halfway point, when half the disk is gone at 45 minutes, is a natural moment to check progress and reset the goal for the rest.
If 90 minutes feels heavy, run two 45-minute sessions with a break between them instead.
Reading a 90-minute disk
Ninety minutes is more than one turn of the standard dial, so the timer uses the 120-minute dial. The disk fills three quarters of it, from 12 around to the 90 label at 9 o’clock.
Questions about the 90 minute timer
Does a 90 minute timer include half-time?
No. It counts 90 minutes without a break. Law 7 allows up to 15 minutes of half-time, which the soccer timer can run between the halves.
Why does the dial read 0 to 110?
Times over 60 minutes use the 120-minute dial, where each number is 10 minutes. For 90 minutes the disk stops at the 90 label.
Can I get a reminder halfway through?
Heads-ups count down to the end, at 1, 2, 5 or 10 minutes before it. For a halfway check, watch for the edge to sit midway between the 40 and 50 labels, where 45 minutes remain.
