HOW TO PLAY FOTBALL

To play football you need to wear special clothes for example booths and a t-shirt of a club.

To do it you have to sign for a club. Then you have to train two times a week and a match.

In football we have different leagues and rules, if you are in the first league you are one of the bests clubs in your town and if you are in the last one you are one of the badly clubs.

The rules of football are very simple:

-you can’t touch the ball with the hands(only the goalkeeper).

-there are targets, the red car and the yellow car, if the referee put you a yellow card he said you are ammonised and if he put it a red car, you are expelled for the rest of the match and the next match.

-The offside it serves  to don’t do goal, if the defenders are more advanced then the attackers, this is offside.

-A football match is played by two teams, with each allowed no more than 11 players on the field at any one time, one of whom is a goalkeeper.

-A match is played in two 45 minute halves.

-The game begins with the toss of a coin, and the winning captain decides which goal to defend or to take the first kick off.

-All players must use their feet head or chest to play the ball. Only the goalkeeper is allowed to use their hands, and only within their designated goal area.

-The aim of the game is to score a goal, which is achieved by kicking or heading the ball into the opposition team's goal.

-If the ball touches or crosses the side line, it is thrown back in by the team that was not the last to touch the ball.

-The game is controlled by a central referee, and two linesmen. They award free kicks and penalties when rules are broken. For continual breaking of rules or for a bad foul, the player may be sent off.
