THE FOOTBALL SOCCER

It is a team sport played between two sets of eleven players each and some
referees who are concerned that the standards are met correctly. It is widely
considered the most popular sport in the world, as it is practiced by about 270
million people. It is also known as soccer association or football association, name
derived from "The Football Association", the first official federation of the world in
this sport and that used that name to distinguish it from other sports that include
the word "soccer" or "soccer". In some English speaking countries it is also known
as soccer, abbreviation of association, since the name of football in those countries
is associated mainly to other sports with that denomination.

The pitch is rectangular of natural or artificial turf, with a goal or bow on each side
of the field. It is played by a ball that must be moved through the field with any part
of the body other than the arms or hands, and mostly with the feet (hence its
name). The objective is to enter it inside the goal or opposite arc, an action that is
called scoring a goal. The team that achieves the most goals after the match,
lasting 90 minutes, is the winner of the match.
