If neither wrestler has scored three points at the end of six minutes, the match will go into a three-minute overtime period. The first wrestler to reach three points will be the winner. If neither wrestler reaches three points in overtime, the winner will be determined by the officials. If the bout is tied at the end of overtime, a wrestler with more cautions and warnings for passivity will lose. If the marks are equal, the officials select a winner based upon activity.
All bouts tied at the end of regulation also go into over-time.
If no winner is determined at the end of the three minute overtime, the winner is decided by the officials. This is worth one point, but can be worth more if the opponent is brought down onto his back. Once the line of the back area breaks a 90-degree angle, points are scored. This can occur both from the feet and on the mat. A wrestler who holds his opponent in a danger position for five seconds will receive one extra point.
