Футбол

Футбол (football) is a team sport played between two teams of eleven players each. The objective of the game is to score goals by getting a spherical ball into the opposing team’s net. It is governed by a set of rules known as the Laws of the Game, which are maintained by the International Football Association Board (IFAB). The sport is most commonly played on a rectangular field known as a pitch, with a goal at each end. Players use their feet to kick the ball, but they can also use their bodies, except for their arms and hands, unless they are the goalkeeper.

Football is considered the world’s most popular sport, with millions of fans across the globe. It is played at various levels, from local amateur clubs to professional leagues and international competitions, such as the FIFA World Cup. The sport promotes teamwork, physical fitness, and skill development, making it a beloved pastime for people of all ages.
