              I believe in soccer.

             Soccer is life for me, because when I’m sad or bored soccer always cheers me up. Soccer can bring happiness to a kid, even if the kid is suffering. By playing soccer you can let out some steam by kicking the ball. Soccer is a good way to exercise and a good way to maintain healthy and good condition.
            I didn’t know that soccer was created back in the 1860’s in England by youngsters in the school yards, but it was banned due to the lack of rules. This game was fierce and caused a lot of injuries, also it caused chaos. Later on, the citizens of England started to create their own teams and started playing with other teams around the city. Due to that, each team started creating their own rules, which led to a dispute in which rules should be used.
         And also, I didn’t know that this problem was resolved when twelve teams from London sat down and discuss about common rules in the game. Which later was form into a governing body called FA (Football Association) which is the same one that is running the cups today.
          I never knew that soccer have a long and aggressive story. Now soccer make me realize that this sport isn’t just a game, soccer went through many things so for it to become a real and official sport. This sport is so famous because of his quantity and their talented players, also this sport can make the economy grow.  

         I’m happy about this beautiful sport because it went through many things so for it to become an international and famous sport. I feel awesome when I play this sport because this sport makes me feel comfortable and light-hearted. This sport always changes my negative attitude into a positive attitude, also this sport makes me forget all the problems I have.
