A football match is a competitive game played between two teams, each consisting of eleven players. The objective is to score goals by getting a soccer ball into the opposing team's net. Matches are typically played on a rectangular field known as a pitch, and they last for 90 minutes, divided into two halves of 45 minutes each. During a football match, players use their feet, heads, and bodies (except their arms and hands) to control and pass the ball. The team with the most goals at the end of the match wins. If the score is tied, the match may end in a draw or go into extra time or penalties, depending on the competition rules.
