'''Soccer''' is a sport played with a round ball generally played using the player's feet.  

In soccer, players are not allowed to intentionally touch the ball with their hands or arms while it is in play, with the exception of goalkeepers in a penalty area. The goal of the game is to kick the ball into the opposing team's goal; each goal gives that team a point and the team with the most points at the end of the 90 minute game is the winner. If both teams at the end of two 45 minute periods are level on points, the result is a draw, or the teams may rematch or play a period of extra time and penalty kicks to force a result.
