Soccer Seems So Easy

Some people think soccer is easy. You think wrong. Soccer has to do with both mentally and physically. You have to have extremely good coordination. You have to be able to make decisions in just seconds. You have to be able to run for at least 90 minutes strait. You get pushed and hit. The only protection you have is shin guards. You have to have physical endurance, there are no time outs. You have to be fast and have great leg strength. You think soccer seems so easy, believe me it is not. There are plays that you have to know; through, square, line, 1 2, the list goes on and on. It is not just kick the ball and run, that is kickball. You have practice ball control and get comfortable with the ball. You have to be able to take charge. Soccer isn’t easy; it is a very hard sport to play. You have to know how to catch the ball with your feet there is no hands in this game. There are lists of rules you have to take account of in seconds. People say that soccer is easy to play. Ya right. There is no shoulder padding. You might say that you don’t get hurt and never fall down. You need to go and watch some professional soccer. There are some major injuries that take place on the field. It is a worldwide sport. Other that the U.S. it is the most popular sport. There is a world cup. It could be as popular as the Olympics. Is the super bowl worldwide? I don’t think so. I am not saying football is easy I know the how difficult it can be. I love soccer and you should try it some time. It can be a lot of fun.
