More DescriptionThe most popular sport in the world is football. In some countries, it is also known as "soccer". This outdoor game requires extreme athleticism because players must hustle and run with the ball across the field. Because of how it is played, the name of this sport was born. This sport was created in the 18th century. It may be a little surprising that China is the mother of Football. This sport was first played in China by children. Later, it was picked up by senior fellows. Despite its origins in Asia, this sport was very well received by European and South American citizens. Some of the most talented football-playing countries include England, Brazil, Argentina and Spain. Many clubs also participate in international tournaments in Europe, where they compete for a prestigious cup.
OBJECTIVE
Two teams play football on a rectangular-shaped grass field. On either side of the field, there are two goal posts. Each team tries to get the ball. They tackle each other and attempt to kick the ball into the opponent's goalpost. The goalkeeper cannot stop the ball by using his hands, as he can only do so within a limited area of the goalpost. The rest of the players must play by passing the ball around and kicking it. A football team's goal is to score more goals than their opponent and win. When the ball passes the goal line, it is considered a goal. The goal can be scored by any player, but it cannot be done with their hands.
