Hello qdzyjin. I am not into much fun of football. I love to to watch basketball matches compared with football. The major reason is our team is poor that it cannot arouse my interest to watch football, not to mention playing football. It is dangerous to play football as one gets hurt very easily.

I guess it would depend on what you mean by "football". In a lot of countries, the term football refers to a game that we would call soccer here in the U.S. and you will find that soccer is not very popular here. On the other hand, American football, which is an entirely different game, is very popular here. The main professional league is the NFL or National Football League but college football is also wildly popular. There are many divisions under the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) and then countless schools that have football programs at the high school level. While some schools do have soccer programs, it's nothing like the popularity and size of American football.

I love football, I come from Indonesia. In Indonesia, football is the sport most favored by many people, even though our country has not been able to show a decent performance. I really admire the team like Manchester United, AC Milan and Ajax Amsterdam. Meanwhile, for the national team, I have long given support to England national team. I like the style of a fast played and fanatic support of the supporters.
