South American Football.

South America and their Football.

Many people will suggest that the South Americans have created some of the finest football players in the world and the question is why?

 There are many answers to the question and one to start of with is that South America is quite poor in a lot of places compared to somewhere like Europe and because they are poor this means that the kids have more time to go outside and play football as in Europe kids go to school and have work to do. This leads to practise for the kids in South America which helps them to develop their skills in football.

Why is football so popular in South America?

One reason to suggest is that to play football all you need is a ball, two goals and 22 people. This means that poor people can generally afford to play to game which leads to them playing it constantly. The country Brazil is nicknamed " The country of Football" to many as over 10,000 Brazilians are playing professionally world wide and millions upon millions play it on the street. Another reason is that because Brazil is so good at football this encourages more Brazilians to play football which leads to the sport being more popular.
