My favorite sport!

My favorite sport is is soccer, this is a sport played between two teams of eleven players with a spherical ball. It is the world's most popular sport.

The game is played on a rectangular field of grass or green artificial turf, with a goal in the middle of each of the short ends. The object of the game is to score by driving the ball into the opposing goal. In general play, the goalkeepers are the only players allowed to touch the ball with their hands or arms, while the field players typically use their feet to kick the ball into position, occasionally using their torso or head to intercept a ball in midair.

The team that scores the most goals by the end of the match wins

Actually the best player of this sport and my favorite player is Lionel Messi ,he is an Argentine footballer who currently plays for FC Barcelona and the Argentina national team.He also won the 2010 FIFA Ballon d'Or at the age of 23. His playing style and ability have drawn comparisons to Diego Maradona, who himself declared Messi his "successor".

My favorite team in this sport is Liga Deportiva Alajuelense; it was founded on June 18, 1919. The team is located in Alajuela's downtown and they play their local games at the Alejandro Morera Soto stadium.

Alajuelense was the first Costa Rican team to win a CONCACAF Champions' Cup in 1986. The club is known by their fans as "La Liga" and had the privilege until 2008 to be the only Central American club to participate in South American competitions such as Copa Merconorte in 2000 and the Copa Sudamericana in 2006.

The team has 25 national championships, the most recent the past year, after 5 years without championship, one of the worst droughts of championship in your history, but I hope that this drought not pass again.

Finally for this and more the soccer is my favorite sport, and will always be.
