Football is a sport ingrained in cultures all throughout the world. Many people will grow up watching it with their friends, families, and colleagues. Kids grow up playing it with their friends. It is a sport that requires perseverance, a strong will, and determination. Those who go on to play professionally are arguably some of the strongest people out there. They have trained the hardest to follow their dream.
On a more practical note, football is, on the outside, men and women kicking around black and white balls. On the inside, it is so much more. The players develop a comradery amongst each other, and rivalries against other teams. They have to spend much time in the day training, where we would spend relaxing. To most, these players are just people on a screen, but in reality, they are extremely strong and talented men and women.
