Soccer

Soccer is a team sport involving 2 teams of eleven players on a field, designed for that sport. The objective of each team is to shoot a ball into the opponent’s goal without using the hands. The only player allowed to use his hands is the goalkeeper in his penalty area. In this same area, a fault committed by a player of the defensive team forces a direct free kick at 11 meters from the goal line. Other faults are mainly unsportsmanlike behavior and contacts between the players.The referee can punish by giving yellow card or a warning, or, he can give the red card which expulses a player of the match.
