Football is a team sport played between two teams, typically consisting of eleven players each, on a rectangular field with the objective of scoring goals by getting a ball into the opposing team’s net. The game is governed by a set of rules known as the Laws of the Game. In most countries, “football” refers to what is known in the United States as “soccer,” where players primarily use their feet to maneuver the ball, apart from the goalkeeper who can use their hands within a designated area. The sport is known for its global popularity, with major tournaments such as the FIFA World Cup showcasing the world’s best national teams. Football promotes physical fitness, teamwork, and strategic play, making it a widely played and watched sport around the world. In some regions, the term “football” can also refer to other variants, such as American football or Australian rules football, which have different rules and styles of play.
