Sport

Football

You can play or have a (football) match / game (of football). It might be a home or an away match depending on whether you’re playing on your team’s home ground or not.

The aim is to score a goal. Players may tackle an opponent to try to take possession of the ball1. If you tackle in an illegal way, you foul your opponent. This will lead to the referee blowing his whistle and an opponent taking a penalty or taking a free kick. If someone isn’t playing very well the manager may decide to drop the player from the team or bring on a substitute2. Both teams hope that they will have taken the lead3 by half-time.


1 get the ball
2 replace one player with another
3 be in a winning position
