Soccer: the World is After a Football
Most people around the world at least know what it is, even if they don't have a special love to this sport. Also known as football, soccer is the most celebrated team sport, played in almost all parts of the world, except where it is too costly to get a ball. We have several heroes and even more antiheroes in this game. While we can't forget the magic of Pele's legs, we can't also forget how legendry Maradona has thrown away his reputed career by succumbing to cocaine and ephedrine in two occasions and leading his retirement life with an overweight, ill-healthy body.

Games- 19th Century - 21st Century
Soccer, also known as associated football, is a very popular team sport that is played globally. Various versions of soccer have been around since as early as 1500 BC! Soccer as we know it started in the mid 19th century, and is a result of global efforts to standardize the rules of the game around the world. However, the first 'rule book? of soccer (or football) was written in 1633 in Scotland. Since its humble beginnings, soccer has swelled into a much-loved sport played by over 240 million people in 200 countries.
Briefly Examining The Football Controversy
By far the most popular sport worldwide is football. Every year, millions of fans come together to experience the exciting moments offered by football players in venues around the globe. Being a team sport, football not only exercises the human body and mind, but also brings people together to produce measurable results. With famous players from every country, like the Brazilians Pel? and Zico, or the Hungarian Pusk's, football-which is usually referred to as Association football in order to distinguish it from rugby football-has literally been worshiped mainly by male fans.
