Whatever you know the sport as—soccer, fútbol, football, or association football—it is the world’s most popular team sport. And the World Cup, played every four years, is the world’s most popular sporting event. But that’s on the global stage. As everyone who plays or watches soccer knows, sometimes the real action and excitement can be found on the local field or pitch. This concise guide is a useful tool for those interested in playing (or just learning about) the game—including its earliest days of play, up-to-date descriptions of the various positions, clear explanations of the sometimes-confusing rules of play, and much more.
