Soccer is a ball game played between two teams of 11 players (10 outfield players and one goalkeeper each) over two 45 minute halves separated by a 15 minute break known as half-time.
The game is played on a grass (or artificial grass) pitch with dimensions 90-120m in length and 45m-90m in width[1] A goal is scored when the (spherical) ball is kicked or headed into the opposition net.
The aim of soccer is to score more goals than your opponent.
