The former should, in theory, be negated by the addition of an equal amount of stoppage time, but teams nevertheless employ a variety of such methods. ;Extending the length of stoppages A common timewasting tactic is to make substitutions late in the game, lengthening the duration of stoppages while the change is made.

In sports, running out the clock (also known as running down the clock, stonewalling, killing the clock, chewing the clock, stalling, timewasting (or time-wasting) or eating clock) is the practice of a winning team allowing the clock to expire through a series of pre-selected plays, either to preserve a lead or hasten the end of a one-sided contest. Such measures expend time, but do not otherwise have a tactical purpose. This is usually done by a team that is winning by a slim margin (or, occasionally, tied) near the end of a game, in order to reduce the time available for the opposing team to score. Generally, it is the opposite strategy of running up the score.

The rules were introduced largely to put an end to the disliked strategy of kicking the ball out of bounds as a means of timewasting. The rule has existed in the Laws of the Game more or less unchanged ever since – with the exception of the period from 1925 until 1938, during which time the basic out-of-bounds rules provided for a free kick to always paid against the last player to touch the ball before it went out of bounds whether it was deliberate or not, making the specific provisions of the rule redundant.
