Soccer, also known as football in many countries, is a fun and exciting sport played by two teams. Each team has 11 players, including a goalkeeper. The main goal of the game is to score by getting the ball into the other team's net. Players use their feet to kick the ball, but they can also use their heads or bodies, except for their hands. Only the goalkeeper can use their hands, and only within a special area called the penalty box. Soccer is played on a field with goals at each end, and the team with the most goals wins the game.
