Football is the number one most popular sport in the world with a count of more than 240 million people playing it. Also, Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are the two biggest names in football, and they play respectively for Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain. Here are some famous quotes by them, by Ronaldo - “Without football,my life is worth nothing,” and by Messi “Barcelona gave me everything.” Although these may be the most favourite players, neither of them play for the most popular team - Real Madrid is the top team with more than 450 million fans!


England won the euros! With Chloe Kelly scoring an amazing goal, they were unstoppable! Talking about the women, Newcastle recently played in St.James park. The womens’ games have recently gone up with a total of 17.6million after the victory of the lionesses. Lastly the first women's football team originated in Italy which was introduced in 1970 to women.


Did you know that football is a big hit in schools? It is typically introduced in primary school/young age. Although other sports also get introduced at a young age, you can normally find more items/clothes with football involved - with a variety of kits, footballs and training items everywhere in sporting stores. But it's also good for kids to learn what sports they want to invest their spare time into from a young age.


Did you know that there are lots of benefits for playing football? You become faster and better at running for longer, you build strength, improved coordination and much more!
