How to play football (or soccer)

If I have to think about something I know nothing about, zero knowledge,  it's football... soccer (see, I don't even know which one it is!)

Now, here's my manual on how to play the game, if anyone ever asked me what the game is all about, then this would be my answer -

Football (or soccer) is all about dribbling.  So just keep dribbling no matter what. Like how at basketball, it's all about bouncing the ball with your hands. Here, it's he same thing but with your feet. But, don't bounce the ball with your feet! I mean, don't kick!  Dribbling is when you keep the ball rolling on the ground, to deny access to your opponent team players. 

So when are you supposed to kick? You kick when you pass the ball to your team players. So remember, dribble away from the opposite team,  and kick towards your team. 

Goal, you say? That's risky business! Because you can't think which side of the court lies your goal. You have got to Dribble,  and kick and focus so now where's the space to focus on the goal? With their helmets and uniforms, you can't even figure out who is your team's goalkeeper....they tend to look alike. 

So yeah, don't aim to goal. Just keep the ball on the field or off the field, but just don't go for a goal. 

Do this, and your team will do the rest. It's a funny game, you're basically just running across the whole field with a ball at your feet, keeping it away from the other team. What makes it complicated are the rules. Now, don't ask me the rules. I don't know. I only know one rule and it's called penalty.

Wait, penalty is not a rule? It has its own rules?! Oh crap. 

Well, in short, this is how you do it :p
