Do You Like Football?

[Gillian M]

Hello. How many of you here at the forum like football? I LOVE it. (Here, I do not mean American football). Those who do like it, must be following the European Champions matches. I watched...... BAYERN MUNICH's match last night against Dynamo Zagreb. It ended 5-0 for MIGHTY BAYERN, with three out of five goals scored by....'Levagol' (or Lewandovski). If you follow GERMAN football, then you must know that BAYERN beat Volwsburg 5-1 in their last match in the 'Bundeslinga' and ALL FIVE GOALS were scored by LEVAGOL! Since then, he's become a hero in Germany, though I keep wondering: ' Why does Guardiola keep him on the bench?' Is he not a professional? Does he not score enough goals? Here he is celebrating one of the three goals.

Yes. However, that is soccer here.

Fair enough. Notice I did say in my post: 'I don't mean American football,' as I was expecting a post like yours! (Please don't misunderstand my words Ed. I didn't mean bad, ok? The name of the sport is not the issue).

Do you like it? I would expect a 'NO.' Correct?

 

[Gillian M]

I do admire Lewagol, but, I'm madly in love with.....

Who know him?

 

[ZEROPILOT]

I'm just a SMART*SS.

Oh no you're not, Ed. If you don't like the sport I cannot expect you to know any player.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

In all fairness. Soccer doesn't really get shown much on television here and American football isn't a very widespread sport.
Soccer DOES seem to be gathering momentum recently here, but it wont be called "football", ever.

Soccer only thing I like is their shoes. Football (American style) can be good.

I watched quite a bit of football(or soccer ) during the PanAm games this year and found enjoying it. Hardly know the rules, but it was entertaining and was fun to root for the people
I don't watch to many sports.

I love football, though my team, is rubbish right now. (Leeds United).
I always take a holiday for the World Cup and watch every game, whatever the time of day.
But I prefer cricket and rugby, nowadays.

But i bet it's Oli Kahn....................

I agree wit you: I LOVE football; as I said. But 'my' team is.....unbeatable at the moment: MIGHTY BAYERN.

Which is your favourite team?

And you are right. It's the LEGEND OLI KAHN, and not OLI my beloved tort.

I don't follow along much with it anymore, my work schedule doesn't allow for it, but I always favored Arsenal.

 

[Careym13]

There was a German player that was very popular when I was younger, I can't recall the name of the team, but the player's name was Morgan....I used to follow that team about 15 years ago.

 

[dmmj]

don't like soccer or American football or whatever anybody wants to call it doesn't really concern me. but if I had to pick a soccer team I picked the New Zealand All Blacks only because I like the name

I'm not a fan of American football either. I feel like it isn't as respectable of a league as it used to be and that a lot of the players aren't good role models for kids. The game itself is all well and good, but it seems to carry with it a lot of drama these days.
