Football, known as soccer in some countries, 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. Players primarily use their feet to control and kick the ball, but they can also use any part of their bodies except for their hands and arms (goalkeepers being the exception).
The game is played on a rectangular field known as a pitch, which has goalposts at each end. Football is governed by a set of rules known as the Laws of the Game, established by the International Football Association Board (IFAB). Matches typically consist of two halves, each lasting 45 minutes, with a halftime interval.
Football is one of the most popular sports worldwide, with a vast following and numerous professional leagues and international competitions, including the FIFA World Cup and various continental tournaments. The sport is celebrated for its emphasis on teamwork, strategy, and physical skill.
