Football
What is Football?
โ€ข It is a sport, played between two teams.
โ€ข Each team has 11 players on the field. One of these players is the goalkeeper, and
the other ten are known as "outfield players."
โ€ข The game is played by kicking a ball into the opponent's goal. A match has
90 minutes of play, with a break of 15 minutes in the middle. The 90 minutes of
play also includes injury time. The break in the middle is called half-time.
Competitions
โ€ข Groups such as UEFA and FIFA organise international competitions
between clubs and countries. Clubs play in competitions such as UEFA
Champions League or UEFA Europa League, and countries play for the
World Cup or a continental trophy such as the UEFA European Football
Championship.
โ€ข The FIFA World Cup takes place every four years between national teams,
and is the world's most popular sporting event, even more popular than the
Olympic Games. In football, there are two main types of competitions. In a
"league", all of the teams play the same number of games, but in a "cup",
teams leave the competition when they lose, until the last two teams play
each other to decide the winner.
National teams and Clubs
โ€ข Examples of national teams are Italy, England, Germany, Argentina, Spain
and Brazil.
โ€ข Examples of clubs are Manchester United, F.C. Barcelona, Real Madrid C.F,
F.C. Internazionale Milano, FC Bayern Munich, Liverpool.
Football players
โ€ข Lionel Messi
โ€ข Cristiano Ronaldo
โ€ข Neymar
โ€ข Paul Pogba
โ€ข Wayne Rooney
โ€ข Bastian Schweinsteiger
Football rules
โ€ข The game begins with the toss of a coin, and the winning captain decides
which goal to defend or to take the first kick off.
โ€ข All players must use their feet head or chest to play the ball. Only the
goalkeeper is allowed to use their hands, and only within their designated
goal area.
โ€ข The aim of the game is to score a goal, which is achieved by kicking or
heading the ball into the opposition team's goal.
โ€ข If the ball touches or crosses the side line, it is thrown back in by the team
that was not the last to touch the ball
โ€ข The game is controlled by a central referee, and two linesmen. They award
free kicks and penalties when rules are broken. For continual breaking of
rules or for a bad foul, the player may be sent off.
