Description of the Game of Soccer
The object of the game of soccer, also known in some countries as football, is to drive a soccer ball into the opposing team's goal in order to score a point.
What Muscles Are Used When Kicking a Ball?
Whether in soccer, in rugby or for football punts, kicking a ball primarily engages the muscles of the upper leg -- the quadriceps and hamstrings -- as well as the glutes. In addition, your core, hip and foot muscles, as well as the shoulders, see action in your kick preparation, contact and follow-through.
Rules of Scoring a Soccer Game
Rules for soccer scoring seem simple -- when the ball crosses the goal line, a point is scored. In some situation, though, getting the ball into the goal does not count as a point. The referee is responsible for making the call as to whether a goal is scored, and he records the goals in a notebook.
