    My favorite football player:

    Cristiano Ronaldo
    Football
    Football is a family of team sports that involve, to
    varying degrees, kicking a ball to score a goal.
    Unqualified, the word football normally means the
    form of football that is the most popular where the
    word is used. Common rules among the sports include:
    • Two teams of usually between 11 and 18 players;
    some variations that have fewer players (five or
    more per team) are also popular.
    • A clearly defined area in which to play the game.
    • Goals or points resulting from players putting the ball
    between two goalposts.
    • The goal or line being defended by the opposing
    team.
    • Players using only their body to move the ball.
    Where football comes from?!
    Ancient China
    • The Chinese competitive game cuju, as stated by FIFA, is the earliest form of football for
    which there is scientific evidence and appears in a military manual dated to the second and
    third centuries BC.It existed during the Han dynasty and possibly the Qin dynasty, in the
    second and third centuries BC. The Japanese version of cuju is kemari, and was developed
    during the Asuka period. This is known to have been played within the Japanese imperial
    court in Kyoto from about 600 AD. In kemari several people stand in a circle and kick a ball to
    each other, trying not to let the ball drop to the ground.
    Ancient Greece and Romans
    • The Ancient Greeks and Romans are known to have played many ball games, some of which
    involved the use of the feet. The Roman game harpastum is believed to have been adapted
    from a Greek team game known ”phaininda”, which is mentioned by a Greek playwright,
    Antiphanes (388–311 BC) and later referred to by the Christian theologian Clement of
    Alexandria (c. 150 – c. 215 AD). These games appear to have resembled rugby football.The
    Roman politician Cicero (106–43 BC) describes the case of a man who was killed whilst
    having a shave when a ball was kicked into a barber's shop. Roman ball games already knew
    the air-filled ball, the follis.Episkyros is recognised as an early form of football by FIFA.
    Cristiano Ronaldo
    • Cristiano Ronaldo (born 5 February 1985) is a
    Portuguese professional footballer who plays as
    a forward for Serie A club Juventus and captains
    the Portugal national team. Often considered
    the best player in the world and widely
    regarded as one of the greatest players of all
    time, Ronaldo has won five Ballon d'Or awards
    and four European Golden Shoes, both of which
    are records for a European player. He has won
    30 major trophies in his career, including seven
    league titles, five UEFA Champions Leagues,
    one UEFA European Championship, and one
    UEFA Nations League title.He has 4 children and
    he is betrothed.
    Club career
    At age 16, Ronaldo was promoted from Sporting's youth team by first-team manager
    László Bölöni, who was impressed with his dribbling. He subsequently became the first
    player to play for the club's under-16 the B team, and the first team, all within a single
    season. A year later, on 7 October 2002, Ronaldo made his debut in the Primeira Liga,
    against Moreirense, and scored two goals in their 3–0 win.After this,in 2003,
    Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, however, was determined to acquire
    Ronaldo on a permanent move urgently, after Sporting defeated United 3–1 at the
    inauguration of the Estádio José Alvalade in August 2003. Initially, United had just
    planned to sign Ronaldo and then loan him back to Sporting for a year.Having been
    impressed by him, however, the Manchester United players urged Ferguson to sign him.
    After the game, Ferguson agreed to pay Sporting £12.24 million for what he considered
    to be "one of the most exciting young players" he had ever seen.He played for:
    • Manchester United(2003–08).
    • Real Madrid(2009-18).
    • Juventus(2018-now).
