FOOTBALL

Most people think upon football as just a sport ,But for people like me ,Its much more than just a game .We are blessed to be alive in an era of the best footballers of all time .Players who have created scenes that only we could imagine .Who have tossed up football from a boring game ,To one of the most popular in the world .Footballers like Cristiano Ronaldo Lionel Messi,Diego Maradona ,Pele ,Zlatan Ibrohimovic and need i go on ,Have set forward themselves as an example of hardwork ,dedication and spirit.They have dedicated their lives to the beautiful game and their fans .They have worked day and night to achieve the level of excellence which is finally paying off ,They weren't made perfect .They're hardwork made them .Lets talk about Ronaldo,He was a poor boy who could only dream of owning a big house ,Let alone be one of the richest footballers .But his dedication is the reason he is where he is today .If he hadn't practised day and night,He wouldn't have been where he is .Lionel Messi, he was diagnosed with a hormonal deficiency ,But he didn't let that stop him from chasing his dreams .Football isn't just a game ,It isn't time wasting. Its a way of living .And once you understand football ,The only goal you want ,Is to score one .

The Beautiful Game

"Game after game after game! Now I realize what is most important in my life: Football! Show me something more thrilling than a perfect volley, tell me you've never dreamed of that immaculate strike and that passionate moment when an entire nation holds its breath. Tell me that football is not our one common language when the whole world stops for ninety minutes to be witness to that one thing we all understand.
You could tell me I am wrong, some may it is just a game. But, this is about heroes and tribes, about loyalties and devotion, it's our commitment and our passion, our battle and our belief."
 -Intro to FIFA 06

The above excerpt, arguably the best intro ever to any FIFA game, simply explains the feeling of every single footballer, no matter professional or amateur, out there. Yeah, it may be just a game from your point of view, but for us this is more than just a game. It is something that runs through one's veins. The moment we have a football, we suddenly transcend the boundaries of this world. All the problems suddenly disappear and, at least for an hour or so, all that matters is the beautiful game! All that matters is the ball at your feet. It isn't about goals either, it is just the game, it is about getting out there and dancing with the ball. It is about a beautiful dodge, about a perfect backheel, a sudden dribble out of nowhere. No, you don't need to be the greatest player to enjoy this game. It is all about the current that suddenly rushes through your body as soon as touch the ball. No matter how many times you fail, the love of the game just doesn't let you quit it. You go into the game again harder, with renewed passion. I rest my case with some awesome words from one of the greatest of the game 
"Some People think that football is a matter of life and death, I assure you it is much more serious than that."
