Here in Brazil the big stadiums there are the Official size, but is common in other country they do not obey the FIFA laws. The length of the pitch for international adult matches is in the range 100–110 m (110–120 yd) and the width is in the range 64–75 m (70–80 yd). Fields for non-international matches may be 91–120 m (100–130 yd) length and 45–91 m (50–101 yd) in width, provided that the pitch does not become square. The longer boundary lines are touchlines or sidelines, while the shorter boundaries (on which the goals are placed) are goal lines. A rectangular goal is positioned at the middle of each goal line.[29] The inner edges of the vertical goal posts must be 7.3 m (8 yd) apart, and the lower edge of the horizontal crossbar supported by the goal posts must be 2.44 m (8 ft) above the ground. Nets are usually placed behind the goal, but are not required by the Laws.

It can vary. It depends on the organizing body of the competition. The world cup is run by FIFA and lets the fields vary from, I think, like 100 to 110 yards long and something like 65 to 75 feet wide. So the different stadiums in Germany can and do have slightly different sized fields that the teams are playing on now at the world cup. The national leagues have their own size variations. So England's Premier League allows for bigger fields then the games held as part of the Champions League (which is a competition between the best clubs in Europe). So sometimes an English team that plays on a big field has to redraw the lines smaller when they host a game in the Champions League.

The answer to this question varies depending on venue. In the US the field sizes vary mostly because many of the games are played on American Football fields that are already smaller than the soccer fields in Europe. Some fields are narrow some are short but usally they are 120 yards long and 60ish yards wide.

Due to the original formulation of the Laws in England and the early supremacy of the four British football associations within IFAB, the standard dimensions of a football pitch were originally expressed in imperial units. The Laws now express dimensions with approximate metric equivalents (followed by traditional units in brackets), though popular use tends to continue to use traditional units.

The length of the rectangular field (pitch) specified for international adult matches is in the range 100-110m (110-120 yards) and the width is in the range 65-75m (70-80 yards). The longer boundary lines are touchlines or sidelines, while the shorter boundaries (on which the goals are placed) are goal lines

The short and accurate answer is, there is no set standard regulation side. FIFA says that pro and international matches be "around" a certain size, though any field can be considered legal as long as it is a rectangle. In the US it is 120 yards (a football field is 120 yards long because the endzones are included) and MLS games are played on this model.

It varies by age. At this level, the field variations tighten considerably. The standard size for professional / international fields is 80 yards wide and 120 yards long.

Most high school fields run about 60 yards wide & 100-110 yards long.

I referee...that's how I know.
