Absolutely! There is no sport like soccer on earth. This is not a mere statement or a comment just to stir unnecessary passion because many will agree with me on this. I agree that one enjoys soccer better watching it at top level. However, even on the streets, beaches, bush paths, basement, garage, living room or even bedroom, soccer is the greatest sport. I don't want to look down on some sports but I consider some sports not entertaining and interesting enough to waste my time watching them. Examples are sports like cricket and baseball. Wel, I know those are the favourite sports of some persons, my opinion is personal.

I feel that to truly enjoy watching soccer, you have to watch the highest level of soccer. It is certainly not easy to have 20 players chasing after a ball without the players being extremely skillful with the ball. It is a huge task to master the skill to flick, carcass, dribble, cross, pass, shot the ball. And when players manage to do that, there is team synergy and chemistry. Only the highest level of soccer offer that, and it is certainly enjoyable to watch that. That is not the case for other tiers of soccer, and it will often be boring and dull. That is my opinion. Happy mylotting!

I like soccer more than cricket. Because it is fast and consumes less of my time. Of course I am talking about European football and not Indian football. But I enjoyed the recent Nehru Cup matches. India has made commendable improvements in their gameplay. But the BPL and La liga is simply irresistible. The pace of the game and the Star attractions are definitely pulling me to watch these matches. I like the twenty -twenty version of cricket more than onedayers because the game winds up in 3 hours. Moreover the players play very cautiously in onedayers , au contraire the 20-20 games reveals their ferocity. It is so appealing ,as the game never fails to excite. Anything can happen and it happens so fast and so frequently that in those three hours my adrenaline storage would be depleted. Of course the most popular game in the world is Soccer. And it could never be surpassed. It is simply because the game demands least budget. Kids in the street can start a game if the get one ball and four stones (for goal posts). Every other game demands more things . Also the rules are simple and can be learned fast. Only thing is ,it needs more persons to start a game. Cricket can be played with just two players. So I would vote for Soccer.

Football (soccer) is the best sport in the world. No other sport can compare with it. There is 90 minutes full of action and surprise. Their pace and skill can't be find at any other sports. One more good thing about football is there is no much interruption during the game. So you need to full alert during the 90 minutes.
