Jalkapallo, known as soccer in many countries, is a popular team sport played between two teams of eleven players each. The objective of the game 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 goalkeepers can use their hands within the penalty area. The game is played on a rectangular field, typically made of grass, with a goal at each end. Jalkapallo is governed by the FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association), which organizes major tournaments like the FIFA World Cup.
