Association football, commonly known as football or soccer, is a sport played between two teams of eleven players with a spherical ball. It is the world's most popular sport. The game is played on a rectangular field of grass or green artificial turf, with a goal in the middle of each of the short ends. The object of the game is to score by driving the ball into the opposing goal. In general play, the goalkeepers are the only players allowed to touch the ball with their hands or arms, while the field players typically use their feet to kick the ball into position, occasionally using their torso or head to intercept a ball in midair. The team that scores the most goals by the end of the match wins. If the score is tied at the end of the game, either a draw is declared or the game goes into extra time and/or a penalty shootout, depending on the format of the competition. The Laws of the Game published in England by the Football Association in 1863 remain the basis for the way the sport is played today. Football is governed internationally by FIFA which organises the World Cup every four years. From Wikipedia under the

Q. I merely want to see you create a soccer team of your most favorite soccer players from all around the world. I want you to make a team that couldn't be beaten by any other team, not even once. You're making a dream team, a worldwide all-star soccer team. (DON'T forget to show or tell a line-up also, I don't want just a list of 11 players, but I want to know the positions) RULES: you can use any player in the entire world that is still playing right now. Asked by The Nutmeg Master - Wed Jul 19 12:41:14 2006 - - 7 Answers - 2 Comments A. if you would put 11 star players in a team, that doesnt necesarily make it the best team...because they need to be able to play together... it has been proven so often in the past that the winning team is the one who has the best gelled group of players, with a few stars to bring that bit extra...
