But if that is the case, the 2nd half would still only be 20 minutes…according to the rule.

Also, I was thinking. Lets say that the match is 10-0 at half time. According to the rule, the 2nd half is 20 minutes. But at the same time, if there is a 10 goal differential in the 2nd half, the match is terminated. Don't you have start the 2nd half for a match to be consider legal? Does that mean you start the 2nd half and then terminate it basically at the same time?
