Fotbal

Fotbalul este un sport de echipă ce se dispută între două echipe alcătuite din 11 jucători fiecare. La începutul secolului 21 era jucat de peste 250 de milioane de jucători în peste 200 de țări, ceea ce îl face cel mai popular sport din lume.[1][2][3][4]

Se joacă cu o minge sferică pe un teren dreptunghiular, acoperit cu iarbă, cu câte o poartă la fiecare capăt. Scopul jocului este de a înscrie goluri introducând mingea în poarta adversarului. În afara portarului, ceilalți jucători nu se pot folosi de mâini pentru a manevra mingea. Câștigătorul meciului este echipa care a înscris mai multe goluri la încheierea partidei.

Originile fotbalului se află undeva în urmă cu peste 2000 de ani. În 2004, forul ce guvernează acest sport la nivel mondial FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association)[5] a recunoscut China ca fiind locul de naștere al fotbalului. În jurul anului 200 î.e.n. chinezii jucau un sport asemănător numit cuju. Regulile au evoluat cu timpul, astfel ajungându-se la sportul practicat astăzi.

În primăvara anului 2001, FIFA informa că peste 240 de milioane de oameni joacă regulat fotbal, în peste 200 de țări de pe întreg globul. Regulile sale simple și echipamentul redus și ieftin, necesar practicării fotbalului au contribuit, fără îndoială, la creșterea popularității sale. În multe zone ale lumii, fotbalul naște pasiuni enorme și joacă un rol foarte important în viața fanilor, a comunităților locale și chiar a națiunilor; este deseori numit cel mai popular sport din lume. Este recunoscut în multe țări drept: sportul rege.

1. Facebook is a social networking service and website launched in February 2004, operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc.^[1] As of July 2011, Facebook has more than 750 million active users.^[6][7] Users may create a personal profile, add other users as friends, and exchange messages, including automatic notifications when they update their profile. Facebook users must register before using the site. Additionally, users may join common-interest user groups, organized by workplace, school or college, or other characteristics, and categorize their friends into lists, e.g. "People From Work", or "Really Good Friends". The name of the service stems from the colloquial name for the book given to students at the start of the academic year by university administrations in the United States to help students get to know each other. Facebook allows any users who declare themselves to be at least 13 years old to become registered users of the website.

It gradually added support for students at various other universities before opening to high school students, and, finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. However, based on ConsumersReports.org on May 2011, there are 7.5 million children under 13 with accounts, violating the site's terms.^[9]
