Футбол

Футбол, or 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, primarily using any part of the body except the arms and hands, with the exception of the goalkeepers, who can use their hands within their penalty area.

The sport is governed by a set of rules known as the Laws of the Game, developed by the International Football Association Board (IFAB). Football is known for its global popularity, cultural significance, and professional leagues, including the English Premier League and major international tournaments like the FIFA World Cup.

Football can be played on various surfaces, including grass, artificial turf, and indoor facilities, and it is enjoyed recreationally by individuals of all ages and skill levels. The sport emphasizes teamwork, strategy, and physical fitness.
