 What is football?
• Football, also known as soccer, is a popular sport
played all around the world. It is a team sport
played on a rectangular field with two teams of
eleven players each, who attempt to score goals
by kicking a ball into the opposing team's goal
post. The team that scores the most goals by the
end of the match wins.
 Fun fact:

Despite being known for his incredible athleticism and physical abilities, Ronaldo is
actually not a big fan of weightlifting. Instead, he prefers to stay in shape by doing a
combination of bodyweight exercises, cardio, and skill-specific training on the
football field. In fact, in an interview with Men's Health magazine, Ronaldo stated
that he only lifts weights as a last resort, and prefers to focus on functional training
that helps him perform better on the pitch.
