Match: 2 periods of 3 minutes with a 30-second break (UWW freestyle format; NCAA aligns); Tied at the end of regulation: criteria for winner — most recent technical points scored wins (not overtime); Periods are continuous in regulation (no clock stops for stalemates per UWW)
Why people argue about this
People often assume that a match ends in overtime if it's tied at the end of two three-minute periods, which isn't explicitly stated here. However, the official verdict clarifies that there is no overtime for ties; instead, the winner is determined by the most recent technical points scored throughout both periods.
