Chapter 1: How the Game Works

The game soccer is hard at first but, eventually it gets easier to play when you get more experience in the game. Also, soccer is fun once you start playing. There are a lot of rules in soccer, but still soccer is a really good sport, or at least that is what I think. And rules mean to do the right thing in soccer and not cheat. The total number of players you can have on field at once is 8 players. You can have 1 striker, 3 midfielders, 3 defenders and 1 goalie. Before you start the game there is a coin toss to see who starts. Then to score a goal you have to pass to other players, and if you need help and when you are close enough to the goal you can shoot with the sole of your foot. The word sole means the inside of your foot.
