How old is football?
Looking at the various stories on this particular website and a few things start to run through your mind. The first thing being that football is among the oldest sport in history with a number of histories on its sleeves. Garder (2017), in his article writes that, running onto the field that day 50 years ago to play for Don Revie’s Leeds United against Liverpool, Albert did indeed become a pioneer role model for all the black players that have graced our game over the past half a century. Albert Johanneson was the first black footballer to play in the FA cup final. Meaning as early as the 1960’s, football had already become a thriving game. We also learn that racism was also a menace and it was being practised openly, according to what Garder (2017) writes, “the truth was that he (Albert) had already suffered such a barrage of racist abuse – including being called names in the media in the run – up and even facing taunts from his opponents in the minutes before the game – he asked to be substituted before kick – off.
Football in the current world
Well, we cannot get our heads stuck in the mud about the past, though it existed and acts as a lesson to us. Football.com also takes us to the current world and deals with current affairs. From the website you get to see how football has revolutionized. With the current affairs you get to read about how Arsenal got their ‘high five’ beating from Bayern Munich and how the fans reacted, much of it being criticized the losers. Towells (2017) says that, that is the seventh season in a row in which Wenger has failed to advance past the last 16. Spurs fans will take great delight in telling you even they managed it in 2011. That was not the only fascinating news on that particular period as the famous Barcelona also got a massive thrashing from PSG with Di Maria scoring twice (Towells, 2017). Well, somehow, football is unpredictable and that’s the fun part of it....
