Fotboll, known as soccer in some countries, is a team sport played between two teams of eleven players each. The objective is to score goals by getting a ball into the opposing team's net. Players primarily use their feet to control and pass the ball, but they can also use their heads and torsos. The game is played on a rectangular field, known as a pitch, with a goal at each end. The match consists of two halves, each lasting 45 minutes, with a 15-minute halftime break. Referees oversee the game to enforce the rules, ensuring fair play. FIFA, the international governing body, organizes major tournaments like the World Cup, which showcases the best teams from around the globe.
