Association football, more commonly known as football or soccer, is a sport played between two teams of eleven players with a spherical ball. At the turn of the 21st century, the game was played by over 250 million players in over 200 countries, making it 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 (unless the ball is carried out of play, where the field players are required to re-start by a throw-in of the game ball), 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 were originally codified in England by the Football Association in 1863 and have evolved since then. Association football is governed internationally by FIFA - Fédération Internationale de Football Association (English: International Federation of Association Football), which organises the FIFA World Cup every four years.
As. You. You look at the life you're living and you fall down and CRY
And you look at the cards you're given and you don't, don't know WHY
GET UP, STAND UP, and tell them to their face
I look at the life I'm living now, and I make NO MISTAKES
Confidence beyond compare
And I'm not scared
I've come prepared
In the end
Without a doubt
You might try to shut me out
In turn I try to learn to apply
Without a doubt
You'll find what it's all about
Is life worth living?
Without a doubt
No matter how hard you TRY to justiFY
Just how the LAWS of NATURE APPLY
You'll be given LIFE ON A PLATE, but still I cannot RELATE
If I was you, I'd RATHER JUST DIE
Well, as you look at the life you're living and you fall down and cry and
You look at the cards you're given and you don't know why
You try to get up, stand up, and tell them to their face
I look at the life I'm living now, and I make no mistakes
Without a doubt
You might try to shut me out
In turn I try to learn to apply
Without a doubt
You'll find what it's all about
Is life worth living?
Without a doubt
Yeah, a prisoner in my skin
Yeah, I'm never fitting in
Without a doubt
You might try to shut me out
In turn I try to learn to apply
Without a doubt
You'll find what it's all about
Is life worth living?
Am I still breathing?
Without a doubt...
Without a doubt...
Without a doubt...
Without a doubt
Is life worth living?
Am I still breathing?
