Topic: The love in football - page 5. (Read 596 times)

For me in my country football is like a culture, it is one of the sports that unite people, the old, the young and the middle age just name it, football has a different aura in the sporting world, I think people across the world have a common knowledge and almost the same feeling about football.
Of course there are other sports in the world like basketball, cricket, swimming etc, but none has the kind of fan base like football. Football unites the world, it brings everybody to a common ground, because in the WORLD CUP every Nations that qualifies plays and shows its talent and recognition.

Interesting taught on the odd setting of football sport betting, because it's almost as if these bookmaker easily manipulate the odds in soccer or sports betting than any other type of betting. It's always like you, as a gambler have an advantage because of how people can draw conclusion as this games due to the fact that it's a sport that is played live and we can make proper stats to aid your prediction but believe me this advantage just makes the sport even a little bit harder to bet because of how the odds are easily manipulated.

Football is a sport that's indiscriminate for one. In basketball, the game is predominantly littered with Americans who claim they are "the world champions" when they only won national competitions. Prejudice against certain races are also prevalent in this sport. With Chess, there's a certain air of elitism that prevents the average people from appreciating the sport and the competition, not to mention the fact that the game's so tense that if you didn't pick up Chess from when you're a kid, you literally stand no chance against the current state of the game.

Football on the other hand, is for everyone, literally. You got countries setting up their own leagues, and then international tournaments that are indiscriminate of any race and are supportive of whoever wins. We got loyal fans that are both degenerate in fanaticism, and while the sport's got its downsides, the ups make up for it so much that the whole football community's willing to overlook these.

Football (soccer to many of you) is the most popular sport in the world. More people watch football than any other sport in the world.

Nothing else comes close to the appeal that football has.



Super Bowl Pales in Comparison to the Biggest Game in Soccer

While Americans are getting ready for what they consider the biggest sporting event of the year, the 57th Super Bowl, the rest of the world couldn’t care less. Well that may be a bit harsh, but from an American perspective it’s easy to overestimate the global appeal of the biggest game in (American) football.

Speaking of football, soccer, i.e. the proper kind of football from a European perspective, far exceeds the Super Bowl in terms of global interest. The FIFA World Cup Final, played every four years to culminate a month-long tournament of 32 nations, really is the biggest game in the world, regularly reaching more than a billion people across the globe.

According to FIFA, the 2018 World Cup final between France and Croatia reached an average live audience of 517 million viewers, with more than than 1.1 billion people tuning in over its 90 minutes. The Qatar 2022 final reached almost 1.5 billion people according to preliminary figures, while the average live audience of Argentina's spectacular win over France has yet to be determined. The 2022 Super Bowl pales in comparison, having had an average TV viewership of 99.2 million on NBC plus an estimated 30 to 50 million viewers around the world.

You're right, football is not the only most popular sports in the world, there are other ones too that have gained world recognition but football has the highest numbers of fans that it has developed because of its popularity and the likes, as you have listed some from the above post, there are many other games we can play as well with a world standard ratings and football still serves as their head over all because if it population in numbers of fans or spectators.

Uhmmm, the love for the game is undefinable...
It's grown over the years and I don't think any sports can be compared to it - well, I think it's really fascinating to see how brilliant people can be, just by using Thier legs to balance and play every unthinkable skills, running and sprinting on the same legs too...
I see every growing American child diving into Thier common sports - basketball... why's that? Maybe because it's easier...lol

Football is the most popular type of sport and is quite popular with almost every group, both young and old, men and women.

And this sport of football is quite unique, in that even if someone can't play football and doesn't understand football well enough, they can still enjoy football just by watching the match. Because the audience can see the excitement of a football game, such as when they see players passing each other to the euphoria of a goal which causes quite loud cheers. Moreover, if you watch football while betting, the sensation and challenge will increase. But remember when we make that bet, we have to be prepared to lose money and be willing to accept defeat. And also when placing a bet, never act carelessly by guessing carelessly, because when placing a sports bet you must go through a thorough analysis first.

Football has a large audience, but there are still other people who have interest in other sports. Football ranks first on popular sports, then Cricket, Hockey, Tennis, Volley Ball, Table Tennis, Basket Ball, Baseball, Rugby and Golf according to this on The Most Popular Sports In The World. I believe they are correct, because football is one sport that is played almost everywhere. It is very interesting and anything can happen, It is very unpredictable and because of the that people love it. Also because the sport has matured a lot that there are football games almost every week, different competitions and leagues in different regions, it is difficult for it not to be popular.

Football is the most famed sport in Europe for the longest time and its presence in the region has been cemented by international tournaments.
Many people have had clubs in their neighborhood that they support since small children.

So there really is no wonder that football is the most famed sport, at least in Europe.
But as you know, each region has its own favorite sport. For some countries it's cricket, for others its rugby, for the USA it balances between Basketball and NFL or sometimes baseball.
But really in Europe Football reigns supreme most of the time.

It really ties back to how most people grew up, with it being the most accessible sport nearby them, and getting to love their local association.

Football is an amazing sport game I am not sure there's any sports that has so much attraction and fans like football which is called soccer in America. In my opinion, football with a good knowledge about a particular league you have interest in it's easy to analyze and from an indepth analysis you can have a bigger chance of winning your bets than casino games that re purely luck based.
Another personal opinion is about how the game of football doesn't require many instruments to have the play started, what you just need is the ball and players just go on having their fun playing it on an open space. Unlike other sports that requires as a necessity some instruments to be available before the play can kick off, example is hockey, table tennis ND the rest.

There are many reasons why football is the world's most recognized sporting activities, may we should start from where every children were found to have once being a footballer right from childhood days because anyone can easily use anything to make the practice of playing football without them having the real ball to use in playing, once we can engage our legs in kicking something can be termed football, we can started to generate many other reasons which could be personal to everyone about why they have decided on going for football.

Football's popularity stems from its simplicity.  Just get a ball across a line without using your hands, in any way you can and  that basic concept allows kids worldwide to play, even in poverty with little space or equipment - just kick a can over a line.  Despite football's visual complexity on TV, its intuitive nature persists from makeshift beginnings in destitute streets to manicured pitches.  



Real football? There's only one true football, and it's definitely not the NFL!  

People like football due to easing moment and Joy it gives while watching it be if any league, naturally it reduces stress and make someone happy only if you don't place any bet on any team because sometimes it makes you feel worried since your favorite team is on lost.  However, football is the most popular esports globally is also supported by nearly all countries and people do prefer placing betting through it in general.

Soccer games is one of the most viewed sport and it takes a lot of participation from the people at some point ranging from their ability to follow up by watching the game to players' involvement in a career in which is competitive for both fans and players alike.

Football is one among many that have gained people's attention and at some point, there is glue to the game all through which makes it more exciting to them at some point.

Maybe it's because of the thrill and uncertainty about this game that makes it interesting. If we are in the same page and we are talking about soccer football then I think this is the reason. In 90 minutes of game, one goal can decide the whole game. And that's what so interesting about it. You know every player, even all of their moves you know their current status and performance and yet anything can happen in the game.

A great example can be the recent world cup and the winning team Argentina. They were performing so good before entering the world cup with the record of 36 wins. And after joining the world cup they lost to Saudi Arabia. And even with this, they have won the final. Isn't that fascinating. I'm a big fan of soccer maybe that's why I'm saying all this. It's not the same for everyone. So this is how I feel.

I believe Op is talking about football. It is a simple topic though but it is quite instructive, so I checked for more information than what I can ordinarily think of. So there are quite some points here .

IMO football has lifted so many families out of poverty and including countries. For example hosting football tournament boost some country's economy because of the monies that will be generated from different sources to the economy and to individuals. It creates jobs.

Winning the world cup is such a big financial reward. Countries like Brazil that has won the FIFA world cup 5 times have had such inflow generated to their economy.

Regards to bringing individuals out of poverty, I believe football has direct positive impact to families who have produced players playing the round leather game. And in fact this is a great love showers to football and families who don't have children playing the game have also tried to have a member of their family playing the game because of the love and money that is generated from it.

It has such a great value because amongst other reasons, it is accessible to all.

if you are talking about football and not American football, it's probably because it has been around for a long time and has become part of the culture in a lot of countries around the world, especially in Europe and South America.

shots have been fired, I already saw someone disagreeing with you 😂

This question is best answered by people who love the game and have a genuine interest in it. Casual fans or people who aren't interested in the game may not be able to provide an accurate answer. I believe that the best way to get a clear answer to this question is to speak to someone who truly enjoys the game and has a deep understanding of it.
 
Everyone has a desire sport game that they consider their favourite and dislike the others, and only that person who loves it or dislikes it can give a direct reason for that. Sometimes there is really no reason, but it's just something of a passion. For example, I like football games more than other forms of sport, and my hatred for restyling and boxing can't even be linked to anything else.
 
If you ask me why I like watching football, I still can't pinpoint the exact reason. It's just something that I find entertaining and enjoyable. Some people may say that they like watching football because of the rivalry between fans and anti-fans of certain clubs, but that's not my primary motivation. It's just something I enjoy watching.

Because it's an amazing game but game alone is not enough to make someone fall in love with football. When you watch how Messi dribbles, how can you not love this sport? When you watch how CB gives ball to DMF, then DMF to AMF, then AMF to Right Forward, then throws to Left Forward, then there is the goal, it's amazing. I just love it because it's amazing to watch how these top players do magic on the field.

Real football is an European football, originated in Britain. We Europeans call football to football and not soccer, that's an American term. Football also describes game football in other languages too, in German it's Fußball, in French it's le football, in Spanish it's de fútbol. Only Americans call soccer to football. American football is more like rugby than real football.
Sorry, I just can't agree with you on that word.

I think he is referring to football (soccer in United States). I do not like sport generally again too because the odds are low but some bettors prefer it saying they can analyze it more than casinos games but I prefer casinos now because of the better odds to chances of winning or losing.
