The game of football is one of the most celebrated and loved sports around the world and most countries have an official football team, which gives the game legal backing because the government and competition organizers make a huge budget for these games. But what baffles me is football is the highest gambling around the world but yet it is seen as legal meanwhile gambling is illegal in some of those countries and I can't stop to wonder what an irony this has become.
Not totally legal because there are still countries where sports gambling is illegal and that includes football. Same goes to gambling. Gambling is compose of different games and sports. There are countries that bans gambling or only bans specific games and there is a reason for that, just do not ask and follow it although banning of gambling usually happens locally or offline.On the other hand there are lesser restrictions when playing gambling online, you can visit different gambling sites to see if they allow your country or if they allow this type of game. There are also bypasses that you can use to be able to access them even if they already restricted you.
And even then this is the case of the police at the venue of the matches.
