  • 1998–99 Football League Second Division play-off finalManchester City vs. Gillingham, 30 May 1999: Having finished third and fourth in the league respectively, Manchester City and Gillingham had qualified for the play-offs and, after winning their respective semi-finals, faced each other in the final to compete for promotion to the First Division. Neither team could find the net until late on in the second half, when Carl Asaba burst into the City penalty area in the 81st minute and punted the ball high into the net. Then in the 87th minute, Gillingham doubled their lead as Bob Taylor scored Gillingham's second. However, in the 90th minute, City's Kevin Horlock ran onto a loose ball outside the box and smashed a shot through a crowd of players to bring the score to 2–1. Then, on 90+5 minutes, the ball was fed in to Paul Dickov in the Gillingham penalty area, who, falling backwards, managed to lever a shot over the sliding challenge of Adrian Pennock, which rocketed into the top corner. No more goals were scored in extra-time, so the match went to penalties, where City won 3–1. City keeper Nicky Weaver saved two of Gillingham's penalties.[17]
  • 2000–01 BundesligaHamburger SV vs. Bayern Munich, 19 May 2001: The final day of the Bundesliga season saw Bayern Munich in the lead to Schalke 04 by three points. Due to their inferior goal difference, Bayern needed at least a draw at their match at Hamburg to secure the championship, while Schalke faced SpVgg Unterhaching at home and managed to win 5–3. In the 90th minute of the Bayern match, a goal by Sergej Barbarez put Hamburg 1–0 up and, believing that Schalke had won their first Bundesliga championship for over 40 years, Schalke fans ran onto the pitch to celebrate the title, despite though the match in Hamburg not being over. In the third minute of extra time, Hamburg goalkeeper Mathias Schober, who ironically was on loan from Schalke for the second half of the season, picked up an alleged back pass with his hands and referee Markus Merk awarded an indirect free-kick for Bayern about eight metres from the Hamburg goal. Bayern defender Patrik Andersson shot the ball through the wall of Hamburg defenders into the net, making Bayern league champions for the 17th time in its history. Schalke would later be dubbed "champion of hearts" due to their close loss of Bundesliga title they believed to have already won.
  • 2004–05 Scottish Premier LeagueMotherwell vs. Celtic, 25 May 2005: The final day of the Scottish Premier League season, a day which would come to be known as "Helicopter Sunday",[18] saw Celtic and their Old Firm rivals Rangers battling it out for the league title. Both teams were winning their respective matches; Celtic were 1–0 up against Motherwell at Fir Park whilst Rangers were winning 1–0 against Hibernian at Easter Road. As things stood, Celtic would win the SPL title by just two points, but Motherwell striker Scott McDonald scored an unlikely equaliser in the 88th minute. This meant that Rangers would win the title on goal difference as long as they beat Hibernian. Then, less than two minutes later, as Celtic pushed forward to try to salvage the title, McDonald was able to score again and give Motherwell a 2–1 win. Rangers hung on to win and were crowned champions, winning the league by a single point.[19] McDonald signed for Celtic two years later and helped them to win the title on the final day of the 2007–08 season.[20]
  • Grêmio, 26 November 2005: The final day of the final stage of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série B season would have two matches in Recife. At Estádio do Arruda, Santa Cruz faced Portuguesa, while at Estádio dos Aflitos, Náutico faced Grêmio. Grêmio needed a victory to be champion or at least a draw to guarantee promotion, while Santa Cruz managed to win 2–1. Náutico needed to win the match to guarantee access along with Santa Cruz. In the 32nd minute of the match for Grêmio, a penalty for Náutico, Bruno Carvalho kicks the ball into the post. In the 76th minute, a Grêmio player is expelled. In the 80th minute, another penalty for Náutico, three more Grêmio players were expelled due to an argument with the referee, causing widespread confusion that stopped the match for 25 minutes, leaving only 7 Grêmio players on the field. Believing that Santa Cruz had won its first Campeonato Brasileiro Série B title, Santa Cruz players and fans celebrated the title with an improvised trophy, although the match at Estádio dos Aflitos has not yet ended. At 90+15', Ademar takes the penalty, Galatto saves. Then Grêmio set up a counterattack in which Anderson shot into the attacking field and alone invaded the penalty area and scored the only goal of the match, which guaranteed the title and the return to the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A.[21][22]
  • 2006–07 Scottish First DivisionRoss County vs. Gretna, 28 April 2007: The final day of the Scottish First Division season saw Gretna and St Johnstone battling it out for the league title, and promotion to the Scottish Premier League. Having been 12 points clear of St Johnstone with five games to play, a four-game winless streak had seen Gretna's lead cut down to just one point. With St Johnstone having won their final match of the season, Gretna knew that they had to win otherwise St Johnstone would be promoted to the SPL. With the score at 2–2 entering stoppage time, St Johnstone would be promoted as things stood, but in an extremely dramatic finish, James Grady broke clear in the 90th minute and scored to make it 3–2 to Gretna and win them the match and their third consecutive league title (having won the Third Division in 2005 and the Second Division in 2006), and with it, promotion to the SPL at St Johnstone's expense. The result also relegated Ross County to the Second Division.[23]
  • Real Madrid, 10 June 2007: Going into their penultimate matches of the season, Real Madrid and Barcelona were level on points, heading into their respective fixtures on 72 points each.

In a turn of events, Ruud van Nistelrooy scored the equaliser at La Romareda; seventeen seconds later, Raúl Tamudo also levelled for Espanyol at Camp Nou.[24] This kept Madrid ahead of their El Clásico rivals on head-to-head superiority.[25]
  • 2007–08 Premier LeagueManchester City vs. Fulham, 26 April 2008: Going into this game, Fulham found themselves on the brink of relegation and knew anything less than a win and they would surely have no chance of staying up. At half time, they were 2–0 down and mathematically relegated thanks to results elsewhere. However, the introduction of much maligned striker Diomansy Kamara sparked a fightback by Fulham. In the 70th minute, he pulled one back before Danny Murphy converted a rebounded penalty to make it 2–2 with ten minutes remaining. Kamara then fired a 92nd-minute winner to give Fulham a 3–2 win, which proved to be the catalyst for a late survival bid that saw them win their final two games and remain in the league on goal difference.[26]
  • Sepehr Heidari
    scored a header, timed at 90+6', to give them a 2–1 result against Sepahan. Persepolis needed to win this final game of the season at home to win the title, while eventual runners-up Sepahan only needed to avoid defeat to win the league instead.
  • 2009–10 Israeli Premier LeagueBeitar Jerusalem vs. Hapoel Tel Aviv, 15 May 2010: To win the title, Hapoel had to win their final match of the season in the stadium of their great rivals, while Maccabi Haifa also had to drop points against Bnei Yehuda.

  • Suncorp Stadium, the first half ended goalless, however Perth received the lead in the 51' minute thanks to an Ivan Franjic own goal. Brisbane proceeded to hurl attack after attack at the Perth defense and finally in the 84' minute, Besart Berisha equalized with a stunning header thanks to an assist from Thomas Broich
    . The game seemed destined for extra time when, in the very last play of the game, Berisha weaved through the Perth defense before attempting a shot on goal, but taking an air swing. In controversial circumstances referee Jared Gillett awarded a penalty to the home side. Berisha calmly slotted the penalty and Brisbane were champions again.
  • 2011–12 Premier LeagueManchester City vs. Queens Park Rangers, 13 May 2012: Manchester City and Manchester United went into the final game of the season level on points, though City had the superior goal difference by eight. With five minutes added to the total of 90 minutes, and QPR having a lead of 1–2 with ten men, most of City fans lost their hopes since Manchester United were leading against Sunderland, Manchester City won a corner on 90+2 minutes. David Silva stepped up to take the crucial corner and as he sent the ball into the middle, Edin Džeko scored a header to equalise the game. Two minutes passed without any kind of important goal attempts and right before the last extra minute in the added time, Sergio Agüero attempted a one-two with Mario Balotelli, and after getting the ball in his feet back again, Agüero got past Nedum Onuoha and drove the ball into the back of the net as City triumphed in their campaign. Dzeko's headed goal occurred at 90'+1:15 and Aguero's goal at 90'+3:20 – the latter just 13 seconds after Manchester United's match against Sunderland had concluded at the Stadium of Light.[28]
  • 2011–12 La LigaRayo Vallecano vs. Granada, 13 May 2012: Heading into its season finale against fellow strugglers Granada, Rayo lost nine of its last ten matches and was outscored 30–12 in those matches. Its survival efforts needed help from Getafe and Atlético Madrid, who were facing Real Zaragoza and Villarreal respectively. Zaragoza led 1–0 in an ill-tempered match and would add an stoppage time goal to win at Getafe 2–0, while Villarreal allowed a late goal by Radamel Falcao in the 88th minute at home. Yet, Rayo and Granada were still scoreless as the match approached injury time. Raúl Tamudo, however, scored one minute into stoppage time to save Rayo from relegation with a 1–0 victory. With those results, Rayo, Zaragoza and Granada (despite the loss) survived at Villarreal's expense.[29][30][31]
  • Football League Championship. Doncaster were in the second automatic promotion spot before the game, with Brentford in third. A draw at full-time would have been enough to see Doncaster promoted. In the 94th minute of the game, Brentford were awarded a penalty, which was taken by Marcello Trotta. The penalty was missed, hitting the crossbar, and after a goalmouth scramble, was cleared to Billy Paynter who ran down field, crossing the ball to James Coppinger who tapped the ball into an empty net in the 96th minute of the game, securing a 1–0 win as well as Doncaster's promotion to the Championship and consigning Brentford to the play-offs.[32]

Hull missed their penalty, and in the 93rd minute, Cardiff were awarded a penalty, which was converted by Nicky Maynard, bringing the score to 2–2. After a serious injury delayed the match, the Watford game was fifteen minutes behind the Hull game, so with the score at 1–1, Watford knew that a win would secure their promotion to the Premier League. In the 89th minute Leeds scored to make it 2–1. The scores stayed that way and promotion for Hull was assured.[33]
  • 2012–13 Football League ChampionshipWatford vs. Leicester City, 12 May 2013: Leicester won the first match at home 1–0, and with the score 2–1 to Watford, the game was heading to extra time.

Watford gained hold of the ball and started a counterattack; a cross was swung in to Leicester's penalty area, Jonathan Hogg headed the ball down and Troy Deeney thumped it in with a half-volley to seal the victory for Watford on aggregate. The goal was timed at 90'+6:52.
  • 2013–14 Football League ChampionshipBolton Wanderers vs. Birmingham City, 3 May 2014: Heading into the final day of the 2013–14 Football League Championship, Doncaster Rovers led Birmingham by one point in the race to avoid relegation to the Football League One. Doncaster, however, had a poorer goal differential entering its match at Leicester City. Birmingham travelled to Bolton needing to earn a better result than Doncaster to avoid relegation to England's third tier of football for the first time in 20 years. The visitors trailed 2–0 with 14 minutes remaining, but Nikola Žigić scored two minutes later to put Birmingham in contention. However, Leicester had scored in the 75th minute to go up, and had the results stayed that way, Doncaster would be safe. Three minutes into stoppage time, however, Paul Caddis headed from close range to ensure Birmingham would stay in the Football League Championship for the 2014–15 season. The 1–0 loss at Leicester sent Doncaster to the third division.[34]
  • 2013–14 2. Bundesliga Relegation-Promotion Play-off – Arminia Bielefeld vs Darmstadt 98, 19 May 2014: Darmstadt qualified for the second division of the Bundesliga in one of the most dramatic circumstances in history after it matched Arminia's 3–1 first leg road victory with a 3–1 road result after 90 minutes in the second leg to force extra time. Then, after Kacper Przybyłko put Arminia ahead on aggregate, Darmstadt would have stayed in the third division of the Bundesliga until Elton da Costa, having come on the 112th minute, scored two minutes into stoppage time at the end of the second half to send Darmstadt through on away goals. Its qualification to the 2. Bundesliga was all the more impressive considering the club finished 16th the prior season and was supposed to be relegated to the Regionalliga, except that one team was not granted a license, thus sparing Darmstadt relegation.[35]
  • 2014 Football League Championship play-off finalQueens Park Rangers vs Derby County, 24 May 2014: Nearly nine years after scoring the only goal to send West Ham United into the Premier League in a play-off final, Bobby Zamora scored in the 90th minute to send QPR back to the Premier League with a 90th-minute goal in a 1–0 victory over Derby.[36]

After order was restored, Cordoba had roughly 30 seconds remaining when Ulises Dávila scored the equaliser to send Córdoba to La Liga for the first time in 42 years.[37]
  • Newport County vs. Notts County, 6 May 2017: Newport County went into the match just two points above Hartlepool United, needing a win to confirm their stay in the Football League.

In the 89th minute, Newport defender Mark O'Brien chested a cross down and volleyed it into the bottom corner from inside the penalty box, putting his team 2–1 up and sending Hartlepool back into 23rd position. It was O'Brien's second goal in his career, his first for Newport, and ultimately proved to be the game-winning goal, who stayed up in League Two.
