No, I want to leave one sentence. I am just wondering if the second part has correct tense?

No, it should be in present perfect, but if you change only the tense and leave the ", before" you will have a comma splice, which is an incorrect way to join two independent clauses.

So, will it be correct like that:
It was my first time at a real stadium; before I just saw one on TV during a soccer match.
Thank you

Could you please also help me with this sentence. Am I missing some commas? Is the bold part correct?
What I remember is that after some time that seemed for me as an eternity I felt that I was very tired and I wanted to stop because I couldn't breathe and all my body was in pain.
