Answer:

Association football

Step-by-step explanation:

Association football generally known as football or soccer is a sport that is played by kicking a spherical ball with a circumference of approximately 70 cm by two teams each of eleven players on a pitch which is a rectangular field that has two goal post one on each of the shorter sides

The game is a no-hand contact sport, with the team or side that is able to land the ball in the opponents (goal scoring) the most number of times being declared winner

Football, as a sport, with rules, started in England in 1848, with the Cambridge rules and the highest governing body is the International Federation of Association Football (FIFA), which organizes the football World Cup tournament, held every four years

Football is played both domestically as a clubs side sport, and internationally, both in the Olympic games, the Club, World Cup, Intercontinental competitions, and the continental Nations Cup.
