Football is a team sport played between two teams, typically consisting of eleven players each. The objective of the game is to score goals by advancing a ball into the opposing team’s net, primarily using feet to control and kick the ball. The game is governed by a set of rules known as the Laws of the Game, established by the International Football Association Board (IFAB).
Football is one of the most popular sports worldwide and is known by different names in various regions; for example, it is referred to as “soccer” in the United States and Canada. The sport is played on a rectangular field, known as a pitch, with two goalposts at either end. Players can utilize various techniques, including dribbling, passing, and shooting to maneuver the ball.
The game is played in two halves, typically lasting 45 minutes each, with a brief halftime interval. The team that scores the most goals during the match is declared the winner. In the case of a tie, some competitions may require extra time or a penalty shootout to determine a winner. Football has a rich history and significant cultural impact, with major international competitions such as the FIFA World Cup drawing massive audiences and participation around the globe.
