How do u find it entertaining with such flops like I understand it’s part of the game to draw penalties but like still shit gets old so quick. Also the scoring a goal every half an hour bro like I get so bored. Please make me understand
Zerphyr1 [#2]a lot of it is about the culture and other things, not just the game itself
Understandable
Went to an mls game and shit was lit

I mean I started playing soccer when I was like 3 bc one of my parents played professionally but these last few years I've sorta lost interest in soccer. there is lots of depth in soccer though
Conut [#7]seems boring most of the games no one even scores until the very end
Don’t even get me going on how games can end 0-0
As far as I'm aware it's ingrained into some cultures. For example, here in Italy, if you wear the wrong football jerseys in some cities, you can get verbally abused. Wonderful isn't it? But personally I love watching football for the suspense (you see them pass the ball around and stuff before building up to a goal). I think scoring a goal every half an hour adds to the expense because when they finally score is when one teams fans get super happy and the other teams fans get to sulk in defeat lol. Which is why I can't watch basketball because you score every minute or smth idk.

Okay, the only draws you should be able to enjoy are like... 2-2s or above (3-3,4-4,5-5)

I've been to italy and the soccer culture is insane there.

I feel like sports where people can absolutely sit down their opponents is a much better representation of skill compared to football, because in football the game is decided by one score almost every time, I understand the suspense is cool but basically everyone is at the same skill level to the point where its boring for people like me.

It's different in america to europe. In europe you see people getting bashed or being called horrendous things whereas in America it's more sort of banter.

Trust me I've been to both Canada, US and lots of europe and from experience the Europeans are crazy about their sport.
In Europe it's city vs city and it's like a religion there but in NA it's just for entertainment

Well, I disagree with your statement that everyone is basically at the same skill level, because it's very obvious when one persons dribbling or shooting is better than another. However, you're right that often the game is decided by very few goals, which in my opinion makes the game more exciting, because that allows for so many exciting upsets and revenge storylines lol.
ilovefrozencranberries [#19]I watch soccer with my parents because they caught me wearing thigh highs once and I told them it was for soccer and they think im interested in soccer
Fake football fan 😠

Understandable Geospliced. I understand your point of view and I respect it.

I mean, it's a sport. It's all subjective, so I get where you're coming from. Thank you for respecting my opinion, and I most certainly respect yours too.

It truly is, and i'm not really a sports fan either so my opinions on it won't really be that good.

Yeah, I don't follow other sports either so I'm pretty biased towards football/soccer.
