you should react to the beauty of football but if you do make sure you read the captions to be able to understand the importance behind the clips. Its a video showing the best goals in important matches and legendary players, it makes you realise how special the sport is. Loving your videos and watching you learn!!
@@MrBaronCabron I just feel like the video does make people like it more because they realise how special the sport is, it has happened with reactors before. I get your point though
@bethdavies8494 it goes both ways. Sometimes they get a really good appreciation for the sport after watching it. Sometimes they sit there a bit confused and unimpressed because they're only exposure to the sport has been some Messi/Ronaldo highlights and greatest ever skills/goals compilations.
Yin and yang are two opposite things that are always together. It's like day and night or hot and cold. Yin is the dark part, and yang is the light part. But they need each other to make everything balanced and work correctly, just like how you need both hands to clap.
In chines culture Ying is Female energy and Yang is Male energy. To make perfect balance. Every male has littlebit female energy and every Female littlebit Male energy and they are always oposite.
4:30 note that in some leagues the number of subs changed to 5 subs (but the 5 max subsitutions must be done in 3 times max) because of covid about the play-offs i think both system is nice, even though i grew up with our system, but there's is play-offs in some leagues, for exemple in Blegium there are play-offs as well as the second division of the english league
Not because of covid but because the season that was interrupted because of lockdowns had to be finished in a short period of time so that the new season could start normally. That means that every team had to play a game every 3 to 4 days, which made the players more tired than ever before so they introduced two extra subs so that the coaches could keep their players fresh and injury-free
all tiers of english football below the premier the premier league have playoffs btw. And in line with the playoff conversation, i just think a league where its all play all and the best wins is the best. Because sometimes teams win by a point. I think the champions league is like the playoffs. Where once out of the group stage the 1st and 2nd teams from 8 different groups play against one another in a knockout stage. Until one remains. so i don't really know if thats like playoffs
Welcome to Wrexham is a good look into the culture of football. And other Videos on UA-cam show some of the hardcore fans (ultras) and how much a team (club) means to a whole town and it’s people.
22:26 Fifa (the game) is actually fun if you play career mode and it's one of the most intuitive ways to learn about football, since you learn by having fun
1) barcelona won 6 trophies in 2009 2) and talking about play-offs we do have play-offs: For example an english teams has play-offs in the champions league, fa cup and league cup
Since covid the subs have increased to 5, but only in 3 tries, like for example if you subbed 3 players in 3 tries you don't have the right anymore to make the 4th or 5th sub
After 38 matches, playing EVERYONE Home and Away,it would be a farce for the best team to then have to do it all again in THe Play-Offs. This season is going to the wire, again. The Relegation fight is a fantastic scrap because there are seven GOOD teams who could occupy the bottom 3 relegation places.
We still have play offs e.g. in the second tier (the championship) at the end of the season the top 2 teams are automatically promoted and the four below them enter a play off to see who gets the third promotion slot.
@@jasoncallow860 Thanks,Jason and, believe me,I am well aware of that, having got my (effective) Play Pff deciding ticket at the sold-out Den for Millwall v Blackburn. I am in my 7th decade of attending Millwall games. Thus far,most of the 1,770 games I have been to covering 84 different grounds from Carlisle down to Plymouth:)
yin and yang are the shady and sunny slopes of the mountain, thus, they denote not so much the struggle of opposites (although they symbolize opposite concepts: darkness- light, female - male, north - south, death - life, etc.), but their unity and interconnection .
I really enjoy watching your football reactions you really seem genuinely interested in it unlike some people who just react to a few football videos because its popular rn. Keep it up!
Playoffs are horrific. You'd be watching the top teams fight for the title all season and suddenly after all the points are earned they go back to 0 and play against each other again. They had playoffs in the dutch league and they quickly stopped it because everyone hated it. Only league I know off atm that still has them is the Belgium league and people also don't like that. Playoffs really don't work in football.
The playoffs are an American invention that is more about TV money and advertising than about sporting relevance. Most nations in Europe have both an all against all tournament and a cup tournament that can be compared somewhat to playoffs.
0:25 There's two kinds of shots like that. If there's a foul outside of the bigger box, the team who got fouled (not the individual player, but any player on the team) gets to kick a stopped ball straight off the ground - but the defense can defend it. The big box is actually the limit of the area where the goalkeeper can actually use their hands..and if there's a defensive foul in there, then it's a true penalty, and the team on offense gets the one-on-one kick with the goalkeeper. And again - any player on the team that got fouled can take it. 4:19 There was a thing during covid - when everybody started playing again, not many players were at full conditioning. so FIFA (the world sanctioning body for soccer leagues) hit on a compromise. You could now substitute five players, but you could only stop the game three times to do it. Everybody liked it so much that most leagues have kept it. The biggest "sin" in soccer is stopping the game - clock's still running, right? Same reason the ref on the field decides when the half or game is over. "Oh, you gonna roll around on the ground? Okay, I'm gonna add :30sec for it." 10:19 Here in the US (Major League Soccer), we have playoffs. We use that same 'table' system to determine who gets into the playoffs - but for the Championship? Yeah, you have to fight for it. Even some of my friends from Europe like it. They say it's more like an international tournament (like World Cup), and brings that kind of excitement. 14:44 OFC = "Oceania Football Confederation". All those little-bitty islands in the western Pacific Ocean. New Zealand's the biggest country in it. Everybody else in it is like Samoa and Tahiti. But still - needs to be done. One world, one game. 18:40 Here in Atlanta, we built our academy *first*. Our latest 'breakout star player' is a guy who originally played for our U12 (less than 12yrs old) squad. Google "Caleb Wiley". Young man's actually from here. 22:54 I already mentioned the different kinds of shots off a stopped ball, and when it's a true soccer "penalty". So here's the rest of the rules dump I give to one of 'my fellow Americans' when they're exploring the game. 1.) The whole ball has to cross the whole line. There's no 'breaking the plane' like NFL. Not just at the goal, but also for possession. Lots of videos make it look like the ball is out of bounds, but it isn't. Even if the bottom of the ball is outside of the line - if part of it hovers over the chalk, it isn't. Keep playing. Again..stopping the game is the biggest sin in soccer. 2.) Possession rules: ball goes out over the end line - if the offense does it, the defense gets a goal kick. It's usually taken by the goalkeeper, and GK has to do it from the small box in front of the goal. If the defense poked it out, the offense gets to attack with a kick from that little arc on the corner. Sideline - possession changes to the opposition if your team is the one who kicked it out. Play is restarted by the ball being thrown back onto the field with both hands, and with both feet touching the ground. 3.) "Offside" in soccer gets complicated, but the core of the rule is that there has to be at least two defenders between the offense & defense when the forward pass is made. Watch some games, the production companies are getting pretty good about 'freeze framing' every offside call. You'll pick it up pretty quick, once you see it. The tactic is to jog up the field with your defender in front of you, watch your teammate..and when he kicks the thing into some empty space in front, sprint past your defender to go get the ball after it's sent. Hope this helps, apologies that my comment's so damn long. I just love this game, and every time I see another American saying '..soccer might actually be kind of cool.." I just can't resist. 🤣Fist bump.
I started watching NFL a few years ago....I learned by watching games,pre and post game analysis,,,learning the history of teams and players,then started picking up the rules game by game,now I'm pretty clued up on todays game and have a little bit knowledge of past greats.
I hope this helps, Subs have recently been increased to 5 plus the possibility of a 6th if a concussion has occurred, "Yin to the Yang" basically means the opposite, it's similar to the "Flip side of the coin" phrase, OFC stands for Oceanic Football Confederation, the Quad has never been done in Europe (it's the Holly Grail), the Treble has only been done twice in England and 10 times in the whole of European football history, Barcalona and Bayern Munich are the only clubs in Europe to do The Treble twice, Liverpool have done A Treble twice but never The Treble
Also to answer you, if a player tackles another player without touching the ball first its a foul so a clean tackle gets all ball while a foul gets the players feet first, there are also other ways for fouls such as pushing, or agressively grabbing the player. If a foul is outside of the penalty box uts a free kick where there is the wall and its taken from the spot where the foul was. If the foul was made inside the penalty box its a penalty where its just the player taking it from the penalty dot in the middle of the box where its much easier to score. If a foul is made when the opposing team is in the middle of a good counter attack or the foul is more dangerous than normal its a yellow card and if the foul is super violent or the player getting fouled is 1v1 against the goalkeeper on a fast break its usually a straight red card. Two yellow cards also equal to a red card and if you get a red you’re out the game and your team has to play with one player less and you also get suspended for a few games.
Just to add to any confusion, it is the goalkeeper who decides whether he wants a wall at a free kick outside the box and, if so, how big it should be. It can be an advantage to have a limited wall if, for example, the opposing team does not have any specialists in direct free kicks. The wall not only has a mitigating effect on a shot - it also limits the goalkeeper's vision so it is his decision.
Many teams have gotten close to a quadruple, but only one team to date has won it. In the 1966-67 season Celtic from the Scottish Premiership lifted all four trophies required for a quadruple. However, many teams have come close and won the treble ( Ajax in the 71/72 season, Manchester United in 98/99, Barcelona in 08/09 and 14/15, Inter Milan in 09/10, and Bayern München in 12/13 and 19/20 seasons) PSV Eindhoven also won a treble but I don’t remember the year.
90 min match is split in 2 45 min half's. in Cup finals or knockout rounds after 90 min if its a draw 30 min extra time is added 2 15 min half's if its still a draw after 120 min it goes to penalties shootouts
This is by far the greatest sport,the emotions,entertainment,football gave us two Goats and lucky to born is the Messi and Ronaldo era.The era is coming to an end .Messi(35 years old) Ronaldo(38 years old)😢.
It's not the world's biggest sport for nothing :-) Notice that the major sports in the USA all have in common that time is stopped (so that you can stuff advertisements down the throats of innocent victims). In, among other things, ice hockey, the players actually stand and wait 5-10 minutes on the ice while TV stations fill people's hooves with crap ;-) There is a story that when the USA was going to hold the WC in 1994, the TV stations did not think that was "justifiable" to broadcast sports for 45 minutes without interruptions as it could create an unfortunate expectation of more of the same kind. They suggested that a football match consist of 4 x 25 min instead. To which, according to history, FIFA asked the USA if they were now quite sure that they had any desire to hold a World Cup at all. ;-)
Soccer has/had different rules to Football, Soccer was mainly played on Rugby pitches. You could pick up the ball abit, no red and yellow cards, fighting was aloud on the pitch, no crossbar, no corner kicks, throw ins and crossbar. The first ever football team was Sheffield FC (1857), and everyone plays by Sheffield rules today. The rules was originally written on cigarette packets, or/and on beer mats in a Sheffield pub. They went down to that London to officially make it a sport, but was turned away and told to present/do it properly. It took around a couple of years until they did it, then you get Football as most know it to be called today. NFL came around two years later, which I call glorified rugby because of the pads etc. Don't get me wrong I do like American football, but it is what it is. Hope that helps with the history part of why it's called football and not soccer.
Think of youth academies like AAU for basketball, or junior leagues in ice hockey. The main difference is that clubs run their own academies. Once a youth player is signed to a club's academy, he is under contract, but not fully professional. It's similar to a college letter of intent, except that it obviously starts much earlier in a player's development. A player who ascends the ranks of an academy may then be promoted to the reserve or senior squad - similar to an NFL practice squad, or 54 man roster... except, obviously, practice squad players don't play actual games. Reserve squads do play against other reserve squads and/or lower division teams, depending on the country. An academy player may be scouted by another club, and transferred during a window - just like any senior club player. When football gets in your blood, it's for life. No joke. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't adopt a club as your own. Just be aware that certain clubs have specific cultures. Some supporter bases rely solely upon local loyalty. Others are connected to a particular ethnic group. Still others are commonly associated with political sympathies. The most heated rivalries (derbies - pronounced DAR-bees) are between clubs in the same city, with fan bases of opposing values, political stances, religious backgrounds, or all the above. I have supported Celtic FC for over 40 years. Our club is traditionally supported by Irish Catholic immigrants in Scotland, and is commonly associated with progressive politics. Our blood rivals are Rangers FC. Their traditional supporter base is composed of ethnic Scottish Protestants, and is associated with Loyalist/conservative political leanings. Do some research on clubs, and choose one which aligns with your personal values. I council against throwing your loyalty behind a club simply because they're fashionable at the moment... The quickest way to earn a true fan's disrespect, is to float from one club to the next just because they happen to be good at a particular point in time. Even between supporter bases which despise one another, loyalty is deeply respected.
With kids the club works with the parents or agents(most of the times one parent is the agent) and cant get a professional contract till 18.After 18 they can talk to the player(if he doesnt have an agent),also its not weird cause most sports start out urly on,also most clubs push for education for the kids as well while they are in youth academy.
Liverpool (who play in the English Premier League) nearly won 4 trophies last season. They won the two English domestic cups (F.A. Cup and the League cup). They lost out on the Premier League title by 1 point to Manchester City. The race to win the premier league came down to the last day of the season. For Liverpool to win the title, they needed to win their final game (which they did) and Manchester City needed draw or lose. At half time Manchester City we’re 2 - 0 down against Aston Villa so the title was going to Liverpool but Man City came back to win their game 4-2 and the title was theirs. Liverpool also went on to lose the Champions League final against Real Madrid who are one of the two biggest teams in Spain.
In a 3 team league,primarily. Look at the league Champions over 50/60 years.There are only 4 other teams and some of them were "One Offs". English Champions? Wolves/Burnley/Ipswich/Aston Villa/Derby/Nottingham Forest/Everton/Leeds/Blackburn/Wolves/Chelsea/Spurs/Arsenal/Liverpool/Man United/Man City/Leicester City etc
Yes FC Bayern Munich has won 6 trophies in one year in 2020. Going undefeated in the Champions League no other team has been able to do that. Many prefer this method of winning the league. But we have play offs in the league cups and in the champions league. Along with international football tournaments like the World Cup. Playoff for league do exist in most nations of the Americas like Mexico for example.
The whole keeping possession thing, is as old as football. Perfected by the Brazilians. Germans, Dutch and some English teams in the 70s, it still makes sense and works - though the addition of explosive pressing and counter-attacking is incorporated too.
The English FA Cup is the oldest football tournament in the world and started in 1871. Both the top English division and the underlying divisions have undergone structural changes, but the FA Cup remains the same. The Fa cup has participating teams from the 5 top divisions and selected teams from the 6th tier. Over the years, the FA Cup has been won by 44 different teams, of which Arsenal FC has won 14 times. Most (if not all) nations in Europe have a similar structure. In Denmark, the first Nationwide cup tournament was held in 1940, but is not considered the start. Due to the German occupation of Denmark in 1940 and the difficult times both during and after WW2, the actual start of a cup tournament in Denmark is 1955 and has been played ever since. Like the English, it has participation from 6-7 layers in the tournament structure in Denmark.
Great videos man! You're gonna be hooked soon.. Try searching for a video that is called Beginners football guide by Unisport. It will explain the rules of the game better. Keep the videos coming though.🙏⚽
Yiu should actually look into buying the games ...you'd quickly learn about the players...you could play career mode off-line in which you could buy and sell the best players...you'd also learn the rules
Good Reaction and I subscribed a long time ago HOWEVER there are many misleading comments by the narrator, England has the World's best league and the bottom 3 teams drop down a Division. The difference, annually, is $240,000,000 !!....Top teams can play 55/60 matches in the 9-month season (Aug/May) WE DO CARE about ALL 4 Divisions comprising 92 Teams(some Clubs back to 1888) and WELCOME TO WREHAM is all about 2 Hollywood Actors taking a 5thTier team into THe main Professional 4 Division league. NO-ONE has won The Quadrupell. Football is VERY exciting and not slow, though it can be, occasionally.That is why nearly EVERYONE stands up in an ALL SEATER STADIUM,all thru the game:)
barcelona and bayern munich have won a sextuple which is 6 titles in one year and they are the only 2 teams to have ever done it but realistically anything more the 2 trophies a season is quite rare
Ill try not to make this too long. We love the format we have right now. We love the relegation and promotion system. It gives the bottom teams motivation to stay in the big leagues where there is more tv rights and money to be earned and bigger chances at Champions League/Europa League football. With American sports there is less motivation because there is not rlly a punishment for being the worst team in the league besides missing playoffs. Then you get the best draft picks and start the season over. The tanking system makes teams less motivated to win games and makes the brand of basketball/American football boring because a lot of the games will be purposefully one sided. But with European leagues, there is an obvious tension between the bottom teams to keep from getting relegated and it makes football more exciting because both teams will go out and perform harder and give us more exciting matches in addition to the already exciting matches between the top teams in a race for the title.

For becoming champion with a Play Off system teams basically have to be in top shape just during that short Play Off season - of course you have to qualify for the Play offs but therefore you don´t have to be on the very top of the table but just "good enough" for being over the threshold BUT to become Champion when every single game in the season counts in order to achieve winning a Championship you have to be consistent in top shape during the whole Season in every fxxxing single game...which is a way "fairer" approach in general in behalf of a sporty competition because then only that team wins the Championship who has won the most during a whole season....= most wins = best team = Champion - which sounds absolut "fair", doesn´t it.. But there are leagues with a PO system (for instance Belgium, Austria and some others) , but that is because the country is small therefore there are less teams in their league, therefore there are less games during the season, therefore those add a PO season in order to have roughly as much games at the end as like as big leagues...The main reason why is that there are also international tournaments contemporary in place were teams from the different countries play against each other and in order to be able to compete with those you have to have a constant game rhythm which you don´t have anymore when you don´t play week per week in a competitive setting anymore just because your smaller league has ended already for a month or two, and that is definitively a huge disadvantage... according to "football documentaries" watch "Welcome to Wrexham"...it is kinda US related because US actor Rob McElhenney (from the Sitcom "It´s always sunny in Philadelphia") + "Deadpool" actor Ryan Reynolds "bought"/became the main investors of the Welsh Football Club "Wrexham" few years ago. A Football Club playing in the lowest professional league in the UK and actually at that time those 2 actors from across the pond having no fxxxxing clou about Football but their drive/personal motivation why they did it anyway is explained in the documentary so I will not spoil anything..the documentary shows their very 1st Season as Football club owners from the very start.. Well but what I will tell you because it isn´t part of the documentary is that actually this season just few days ago they achieved to get promoted in the next higher league for the next Season...and there are a bunch of YT clips catching that moment.
Majority of the video was right but I will say smaller leagues even if you aren’t a supporter u will here about as majority of people will support there local and their favourite teams
The main difference is football is played with the feet only throw ins after ball is out of play n goalkeeper use their hands American football is played primarily with the hands 👐
16:55 "The Quadruple' No only 1 team in English football has been in the position to win all 4 (so they reached the Final of the FA CUP, League Cup and Champions league, and could also win the Premier League on the last match of the season Liverpool are the only team to have actually been in a position where they could do this, and this was last season. Liverpool won the FA CUP and the League Cup but lost the Premier Division title on the last day (despite winning their match) Manchester City won the Title by 1 point and Liverpool lost the Champions League final to Real Madrid. I dont know if any team in Spain or Italy or even Germany has done a Quadruple, likely candidates would be Real Madrid and AC Milan due to the amount of times they have won the Champions League, not sure there are enough cup competitions in Italy (could be wrong though) Barcelona and Bayern Munich possibly as they have won a few Champions leagues as well, again Germany(Bayern Munich), like Italy(AC Milan) not sure they have enough Cup competitions, but if I was to guess I would guess it's never been done, for certain has never been done in England
if you want to watch games for free, on youtube there are many channels that do streaming I'll give you two examples, Sgorio the Welsh football channel and there is the J league channel where they show the Japanese league, there are others , there would also be the USL (the second league in the USA) but only if you are outside of the USA do they stream the games 
Yin-yang is the Chinese symbol for balance my bro, it's half black and half white. You definitely have seen it before. Google it and you'll recognise it.
funfact : as far as the OFC region is concerned, the biggest ever win in a World Cup qualifier has been won. On April 11, 2001, Australia beat American Samoa 31-0. It's a goal every third minute and the highlights are on youtube.
Don't ever say "Soccer" if you are in Europe. You may get deported (LOL). Just as a starter when you talked about "Penalties" at the start you mix two things. A foul (bad tackle, handball etc) inside the Penalty area (the 18 yard box around the goal) would result in a Penalty Kick. In this one player from the attacking team places the ball on a spot 12 yards from the goal and attempts to beat the goalkeeper and score a goal. Nobody other than the player taking the Penalty Kick and the Goalkeeper are allowed in the Penalty area until the player kicks the ball. A foul outside the Penalty area is awarded a Free Kick. The team that is awarded the Kick place the ball where the offence took place. None of the opposition can stand less than 10 yards from the Free Kick. They may place a "wall" (just a number of players stood close together) to try and block a direct shot.
He forgot to mention that the winners in every continents champions league meet in a knockout round once every year Thats called the Fifa Club World Cup, and the winner is officially the best team in the world, although european teams win it like 90% of the time
There are some clubs like ajax whos majority of income comes from youth academy prospects they sell on for millions. For some context, they sold a 19 year old defender from their academy for around 80 million to an italian club.

I asked chatGPt- explain World Football from grass roots to world cup to an alien. The countries involved, the different governing bodies,FIFA, UEFA, CAF, TheFA, Conmebol and domestic competitions. Their leauge structures. Rules: offside, freekicks, penaties, throwins,etc - The ANSWER - Football, or soccer as it is sometimes called, is a sport played by millions of people around the world. It is a game where two teams of eleven players each try to score goals by kicking a ball into the opposing team's goal. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins. At its most basic level, football can be played by anyone, anywhere, with just a ball and a space to play. Children often start playing in their backyards or on the streets, and from there they can progress to local clubs and teams. There are many different countries involved in football, with varying levels of success and popularity. Some of the most successful football nations include Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Italy, and Spain. However, football is played and enjoyed in countries all around the world. To help organize football at the international level, there is a governing body called FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association). FIFA is responsible for organizing the World Cup, which is the most prestigious international football tournament. The World Cup is held every four years, and it involves teams from all over the world competing against each other. In addition to FIFA, there are also regional governing bodies that organize football within specific regions. For example, UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) organizes football in Europe, CAF (Confederation of African Football) organizes football in Africa, and CONMEBOL (South American Football Confederation) organizes football in South America. Domestically, there are many different leagues and competitions that teams can compete in. The structure of these leagues varies from country to country, but generally, teams will compete against each other in a league format over the course of a season. The team with the most points at the end of the season will usually be crowned the league champions. There are many different rules that govern how football is played, including offside, free kicks, penalties, throw-ins, and more. Offside occurs when an attacking player is closer to the opponent's goal than both the ball and the second-to-last defender. Free kicks are awarded for various types of fouls, and penalties are awarded for more serious fouls that occur within the penalty area. Throw-ins occur when the ball goes out of bounds, and a player from the opposing team is allowed to throw the ball back into play. Overall, football is a sport that is enjoyed by millions of people all over the world, and it is deeply ingrained in many cultures and societies.
This gives a rough idea about how the competitions work but doesn't tell you what a Penalty is, how you get a Penalty or the rules around taking a Penalty. I have never called a Penalty a PK but I have noticed that yanks are doing so, of course they would, they reduce everything else to an acronym because words are too hard to say, remember or think about, the shortest the word Penalty would be reduced to is "a PEN". You can't have a wall introduced in a Penalty, its you, the ball, the goal keeper (keeper) and the goal. Everybody else is outside the box until the ball is kicked! 🫵😉👍 A free kick ( not a FK) can, will have a Wall between the ball and the goal to make it harder to kick the ball into the goal. There are Direct Free Kicks, where you can kick it into the goal directly, without anyone else touching the ball and indirect free kicks, where someone else from either side must touch the ball before scoring. I once took an indirect free kick, made out I was going to chip it to the far side of the box, the midfielder stood 8 foot away from me and had no intention of going further away, so I asked, quitely, is this a direct free kick, he said no, its indirect, so I side footed the ball forward 6 foot, as if I was cheating, nicking some ground, and he kicked it back and I booted into the back of the net. He looked at me as if I was mad and said "I told you it was indirect!", yep and I kicked it to you and you passed it back, thanks! You just gotta love Football! Its a shame they changed the throw in rule, you can't bounce it off a retreating defenders head anymore!😢 Edit due to me using someone elses fat fingers!

Not because of covid but because the season that was interrupted because of lockdowns had to be finished in a short period of time so that the new season could start normally. That means that every team had to play a game every 3 to 4 days, which made the players more tired than ever before so they introduced two extra subs so that the coaches could keep their players fresh and injury-free
all tiers of english football below the premier the premier league have playoffs btw. And in line with the playoff conversation, i just think a league where its all play all and the best wins is the best. Because sometimes teams win by a point. I think the champions league is like the playoffs. Where once out of the group stage the 1st and 2nd teams from 8 different groups play against one another in a knockout stage. Until one remains. so i don't really know if thats like playoffs
Welcome to Wrexham is a good look into the culture of football. And other Videos on UA-cam show some of the hardcore fans (ultras) and how much a team (club) means to a whole town and it’s people.
22:26 Fifa (the game) is actually fun if you play career mode and it's one of the most intuitive ways to learn about football, since you learn by having fun
1) barcelona won 6 trophies in 2009
2) and talking about play-offs we do have play-offs: For example an english teams has play-offs in the champions league, fa cup and league cup
adding to your first point: Bayern as well in 2020
16:58 yeah, many clubs have won 4 trophies in a season but only 2 have won 6 trophies in a single year, Barcelona in 2009 and Bayern Munich in 2020
Since covid the subs have increased to 5, but only in 3 tries, like for example if you subbed 3 players in 3 tries you don't have the right anymore to make the 4th or 5th sub
barcelona was the first team to ever win 6 titles in one season then bayern recently did it
After 38 matches, playing EVERYONE Home and Away,it would be a farce for the best team to then have to do it all again in THe Play-Offs. This season is going to the wire, again.
The Relegation fight is a fantastic scrap because there are seven GOOD teams who could occupy the bottom 3 relegation places.
We still have play offs e.g. in the second tier (the championship) at the end of the season the top 2 teams are automatically promoted and the four below them enter a play off to see who gets the third promotion slot.
@@jasoncallow860 Thanks,Jason and, believe me,I am well aware of that, having got my (effective) Play Pff deciding ticket at the sold-out Den for Millwall v Blackburn.
I am in my 7th decade of attending Millwall games. Thus far,most of the 1,770 games I have been to covering 84 different grounds from Carlisle down to Plymouth:)
yin and yang are the shady and sunny slopes of the mountain, thus, they denote not so much the struggle of opposites (although they symbolize opposite concepts: darkness- light, female - male, north - south, death - life, etc.), but their unity and interconnection .
Even after watching, continue asking questions. That's how you learn.
I really enjoy watching your football reactions you really seem genuinely interested in it unlike some people who just react to a few football videos because its popular rn. Keep it up!
Popular ‘right now’? 😂😂😂😂😂
@@elmo929 i meant popular rn in the american youtuber space, not overall in the entire world of course it is its the most popular sport in the world
the subs have increased to 5 now in most leagues around the world
Football: it's a foot, it's a ball, the clue is in the name!
Points are 100% the best way, I have seen team get lucky in tournaments, beating all teams you come up against is not luck.
You should watch some iconic games. That would be awesome 🔥
Playoffs are horrific. You'd be watching the top teams fight for the title all season and suddenly after all the points are earned they go back to 0 and play against each other again. They had playoffs in the dutch league and they quickly stopped it because everyone hated it. Only league I know off atm that still has them is the Belgium league and people also don't like that. Playoffs really don't work in football.
The playoffs are an American invention that is more about TV money and advertising than about sporting relevance. Most nations in Europe have both an all against all tournament and a cup tournament that can be compared somewhat to playoffs.
0:25 There's two kinds of shots like that. If there's a foul outside of the bigger box, the team who got fouled (not the individual player, but any player on the team) gets to kick a stopped ball straight off the ground - but the defense can defend it. The big box is actually the limit of the area where the goalkeeper can actually use their hands..and if there's a defensive foul in there, then it's a true penalty, and the team on offense gets the one-on-one kick with the goalkeeper. And again - any player on the team that got fouled can take it.
4:19 There was a thing during covid - when everybody started playing again, not many players were at full conditioning. so FIFA (the world sanctioning body for soccer leagues) hit on a compromise. You could now substitute five players, but you could only stop the game three times to do it. Everybody liked it so much that most leagues have kept it. The biggest "sin" in soccer is stopping the game - clock's still running, right? Same reason the ref on the field decides when the half or game is over. "Oh, you gonna roll around on the ground? Okay, I'm gonna add :30sec for it."
10:19 Here in the US (Major League Soccer), we have playoffs. We use that same 'table' system to determine who gets into the playoffs - but for the Championship? Yeah, you have to fight for it. Even some of my friends from Europe like it. They say it's more like an international tournament (like World Cup), and brings that kind of excitement.
14:44 OFC = "Oceania Football Confederation". All those little-bitty islands in the western Pacific Ocean. New Zealand's the biggest country in it. Everybody else in it is like Samoa and Tahiti. But still - needs to be done. One world, one game.
18:40 Here in Atlanta, we built our academy *first*. Our latest 'breakout star player' is a guy who originally played for our U12 (less than 12yrs old) squad. Google "Caleb Wiley". Young man's actually from here.
22:54 I already mentioned the different kinds of shots off a stopped ball, and when it's a true soccer "penalty". So here's the rest of the rules dump I give to one of 'my fellow Americans' when they're exploring the game.
1.) The whole ball has to cross the whole line. There's no 'breaking the plane' like NFL. Not just at the goal, but also for possession. Lots of videos make it look like the ball is out of bounds, but it isn't. Even if the bottom of the ball is outside of the line - if part of it hovers over the chalk, it isn't. Keep playing. Again..stopping the game is the biggest sin in soccer.
2.) Possession rules: ball goes out over the end line - if the offense does it, the defense gets a goal kick. It's usually taken by the goalkeeper, and GK has to do it from the small box in front of the goal. If the defense poked it out, the offense gets to attack with a kick from that little arc on the corner. Sideline - possession changes to the opposition if your team is the one who kicked it out. Play is restarted by the ball being thrown back onto the field with both hands, and with both feet touching the ground.
3.) "Offside" in soccer gets complicated, but the core of the rule is that there has to be at least two defenders between the offense & defense when the forward pass is made. Watch some games, the production companies are getting pretty good about 'freeze framing' every offside call. You'll pick it up pretty quick, once you see it. The tactic is to jog up the field with your defender in front of you, watch your teammate..and when he kicks the thing into some empty space in front, sprint past your defender to go get the ball after it's sent.
Hope this helps, apologies that my comment's so damn long. I just love this game, and every time I see another American saying '..soccer might actually be kind of cool.." I just can't resist. 🤣Fist bump.
I started watching NFL a few years ago....I learned by watching games,pre and post game analysis,,,learning the history of teams and players,then started picking up the rules game by game,now I'm pretty clued up on todays game and have a little bit knowledge of past greats.
How can your experience of the NFL be relevant to a video called: FOOTBALL (Soccer) Explained To Clueless AMERICAN?
Football is 11 players a side, the ball is round and in the end Germany wins.
Lol thanks bro
Real Madrid wins*
I hope this helps, Subs have recently been increased to 5 plus the possibility of a 6th if a concussion has occurred, "Yin to the Yang" basically means the opposite, it's similar to the "Flip side of the coin" phrase, OFC stands for Oceanic Football Confederation, the Quad has never been done in Europe (it's the Holly Grail), the Treble has only been done twice in England and 10 times in the whole of European football history, Barcalona and Bayern Munich are the only clubs in Europe to do The Treble twice, Liverpool have done A Treble twice but never The Treble
Also to answer you, if a player tackles another player without touching the ball first its a foul so a clean tackle gets all ball while a foul gets the players feet first, there are also other ways for fouls such as pushing, or agressively grabbing the player. If a foul is outside of the penalty box uts a free kick where there is the wall and its taken from the spot where the foul was. If the foul was made inside the penalty box its a penalty where its just the player taking it from the penalty dot in the middle of the box where its much easier to score. If a foul is made when the opposing team is in the middle of a good counter attack or the foul is more dangerous than normal its a yellow card and if the foul is super violent or the player getting fouled is 1v1 against the goalkeeper on a fast break its usually a straight red card. Two yellow cards also equal to a red card and if you get a red you’re out the game and your team has to play with one player less and you also get suspended for a few games.
Just to add to any confusion, it is the goalkeeper who decides whether he wants a wall at a free kick outside the box and, if so, how big it should be. It can be an advantage to have a limited wall if, for example, the opposing team does not have any specialists in direct free kicks. The wall not only has a mitigating effect on a shot - it also limits the goalkeeper's vision so it is his decision.
Many teams have gotten close to a quadruple, but only one team to date has won it. In the 1966-67 season Celtic from the Scottish Premiership lifted all four trophies required for a quadruple. However, many teams have come close and won the treble ( Ajax in the 71/72 season, Manchester United in 98/99, Barcelona in 08/09 and 14/15, Inter Milan in 09/10, and Bayern München in 12/13 and 19/20 seasons) PSV Eindhoven also won a treble but I don’t remember the year.
90 min match is split in 2 45 min half's. in Cup finals or knockout rounds after 90 min if its a draw 30 min extra time is added 2 15 min half's if its still a draw after 120 min it goes to penalties shootouts
This is by far the greatest sport,the emotions,entertainment,football gave us two Goats and lucky to born is the Messi and Ronaldo era.The era is coming to an end .Messi(35 years old) Ronaldo(38 years old)😢.
It's not the world's biggest sport for nothing :-) Notice that the major sports in the USA all have in common that time is stopped (so that you can stuff advertisements down the throats of innocent victims). In, among other things, ice hockey, the players actually stand and wait 5-10 minutes on the ice while TV stations fill people's hooves with crap ;-) There is a story that when the USA was going to hold the WC in 1994, the TV stations did not think that was "justifiable" to broadcast sports for 45 minutes without interruptions as it could create an unfortunate expectation of more of the same kind. They suggested that a football match consist of 4 x 25 min instead. To which, according to history, FIFA asked the USA if they were now quite sure that they had any desire to hold a World Cup at all. ;-)
You asked about a team winning all the tournaments they're competing in, as far as I remember only FCBarcelona and Bayern have done that so far.
Oh wow thats crazy gotta be two of the greatest times of all time
Did Man U not do it too around 2001?
@@mistakenot...4012 no
Celtic team from 66/67 hold the only quadruple…not Barça or Bayern
@@mistakenot...4012 Man U didn't win the League Cup. They have done a treble though. So have City recently.
We have the play offs in England just in the lower leagues but it's another way to go up and only 6 teams
Fcb has recently won 6 titels: Dfb cup, the league, Champoins league, super cup, world cup club titel, Uefa super cup.
Soccer has/had different rules to Football, Soccer was mainly played on Rugby pitches. You could pick up the ball abit, no red and yellow cards, fighting was aloud on the pitch, no crossbar, no corner kicks, throw ins and crossbar. The first ever football team was Sheffield FC (1857), and everyone plays by Sheffield rules today. The rules was originally written on cigarette packets, or/and on beer mats in a Sheffield pub. They went down to that London to officially make it a sport, but was turned away and told to present/do it properly. It took around a couple of years until they did it, then you get Football as most know it to be called today. NFL came around two years later, which I call glorified rugby because of the pads etc. Don't get me wrong I do like American football, but it is what it is. Hope that helps with the history part of why it's called football and not soccer.
Better with most points wins . The most consistent teams wins . There’s no luck to it . We still have play off type competitions .
Think of youth academies like AAU for basketball, or junior leagues in ice hockey. The main difference is that clubs run their own academies.
Once a youth player is signed to a club's academy, he is under contract, but not fully professional. It's similar to a college letter of intent, except that it obviously starts much earlier in a player's development.
A player who ascends the ranks of an academy may then be promoted to the reserve or senior squad - similar to an NFL practice squad, or 54 man roster... except, obviously, practice squad players don't play actual games. Reserve squads do play against other reserve squads and/or lower division teams, depending on the country.
An academy player may be scouted by another club, and transferred during a window - just like any senior club player.
When football gets in your blood, it's for life. No joke.
Don't let anyone tell you that you can't adopt a club as your own. Just be aware that certain clubs have specific cultures. Some supporter bases rely solely upon local loyalty. Others are connected to a particular ethnic group. Still others are commonly associated with political sympathies.
The most heated rivalries (derbies - pronounced DAR-bees) are between clubs in the same city, with fan bases of opposing values, political stances, religious backgrounds, or all the above.
I have supported Celtic FC for over 40 years. Our club is traditionally supported by Irish Catholic immigrants in Scotland, and is commonly associated with progressive politics. Our blood rivals are Rangers FC. Their traditional supporter base is composed of ethnic Scottish Protestants, and is associated with Loyalist/conservative political leanings.
Do some research on clubs, and choose one which aligns with your personal values. I council against throwing your loyalty behind a club simply because they're fashionable at the moment... The quickest way to earn a true fan's disrespect, is to float from one club to the next just because they happen to be good at a particular point in time. Even between supporter bases which despise one another, loyalty is deeply respected.
With kids the club works with the parents or agents(most of the times one parent is the agent) and cant get a professional contract till 18.After 18 they can talk to the player(if he doesnt have an agent),also its not weird cause most sports start out urly on,also most clubs push for education for the kids as well while they are in youth academy.

Liverpool (who play in the English Premier League) nearly won 4 trophies last season. They won the two English domestic cups (F.A. Cup and the League cup). They lost out on the Premier League title by 1 point to Manchester City. The race to win the premier league came down to the last day of the season. For Liverpool to win the title, they needed to win their final game (which they did) and Manchester City needed draw or lose. At half time Manchester City we’re 2 - 0 down against Aston Villa so the title was going to Liverpool but Man City came back to win their game 4-2 and the title was theirs. Liverpool also went on to lose the Champions League final against Real Madrid who are one of the two biggest teams in Spain.
Barcelona won 6 trophies in one year and then came close to it again when they won 5 trophies in 2015. The only team in history to win 6 🏆.
In a 3 team league,primarily. Look at the league Champions over 50/60 years.There are only 4 other teams and some of them were "One Offs".
English Champions? Wolves/Burnley/Ipswich/Aston Villa/Derby/Nottingham Forest/Everton/Leeds/Blackburn/Wolves/Chelsea/Spurs/Arsenal/Liverpool/Man United/Man City/Leicester City etc
The entire planet thanks you for calling it football 🫡
10:42 they kinda do have playoffs it’s called UCL. The teams with the best records in Europe all meet up for a big tournament.
Its now 5 subs but that only changed very recently (literally in the last 2 years)
keep it at playing against all 20 inn the league fosho. theres plenty of playoffs in all the cups and tournaments.
Theres 5 subs allowed now but only 3 subs times subs can be brought on, thats why alot of the time theres 2 coming on at the same time
Lol 18:54 😂…. Nice video bro
Yes FC Bayern Munich has won 6 trophies in one year in 2020. Going undefeated in the Champions League no other team has been able to do that.
Many prefer this method of winning the league. But we have play offs in the league cups and in the champions league. Along with international football tournaments like the World Cup.
Playoff for league do exist in most nations of the Americas like Mexico for example.
Football ⚽️ 💚
The whole keeping possession thing, is as old as football. Perfected by the Brazilians. Germans, Dutch and some English teams in the 70s, it still makes sense and works - though the addition of explosive pressing and counter-attacking is incorporated too.
The English FA Cup is the oldest football tournament in the world and started in 1871. Both the top English division and the underlying divisions have undergone structural changes, but the FA Cup remains the same. The Fa cup has participating teams from the 5 top divisions and selected teams from the 6th tier. Over the years, the FA Cup has been won by 44 different teams, of which Arsenal FC has won 14 times. Most (if not all) nations in Europe have a similar structure. In Denmark, the first Nationwide cup tournament was held in 1940, but is not considered the start. Due to the German occupation of Denmark in 1940 and the difficult times both during and after WW2, the actual start of a cup tournament in Denmark is 1955 and has been played ever since. Like the English, it has participation from 6-7 layers in the tournament structure in Denmark.
I don’t think any team has ever won a quadruple. Even winning a treble is something which happens once a generation.
Playoffs are for tournaments not league. Only MLS has that
Liga mx and belgium league tol
Manchester United has won the Trebble. FA Cup, English Premier League and European Champions League

why are you trynna torture him my guyy
Good Reaction and I subscribed a long time ago HOWEVER there are many misleading comments by the narrator, England has the World's best league and the bottom 3 teams drop down a Division. The difference, annually, is $240,000,000 !!....Top teams can play 55/60 matches in the 9-month season (Aug/May) WE DO CARE about ALL 4 Divisions comprising 92 Teams(some Clubs back to 1888) and WELCOME TO WREHAM is all about 2 Hollywood Actors taking a 5thTier team into THe main Professional 4 Division league. NO-ONE has won The Quadrupell. Football is VERY exciting and not slow, though it can be, occasionally.That is why nearly EVERYONE stands up in an ALL SEATER STADIUM,all thru the game:)
"Quadruple"
I think the most misleading comment was that the pace is similar to baseball. Hell no!
@@mariahdaley4773 Exactly,Mariah:)
barcelona and bayern munich have won a sextuple which is 6 titles in one year and they are the only 2 teams to have ever done it but realistically anything more the 2 trophies a season is quite rare
Look up arsenal there a english premier league team
I've been hearing about arsenal ... ima definitely check them out
Kevin De Bruyne, When Football becomes art by AS Comps is a great highlight video of the best midfielder currently
Yeah winning a treble is hard but it’s crazy to think Barcelona won 6 titles in one season with Messi🐐
been telling u to react to this
Manchester United won the treble league cup FA cup and champions League in one season no other club in England have done it 1998/1999 season
Comerbol is south America, CAF is Africa, AFC is Asia and OFC is Oceania
Ill try not to make this too long. We love the format we have right now. We love the relegation and promotion system. It gives the bottom teams motivation to stay in the big leagues where there is more tv rights and money to be earned and bigger chances at Champions League/Europa League football. With American sports there is less motivation because there is not rlly a punishment for being the worst team in the league besides missing playoffs. Then you get the best draft picks and start the season over. The tanking system makes teams less motivated to win games and makes the brand of basketball/American football boring because a lot of the games will be purposefully one sided. But with European leagues, there is an obvious tension between the bottom teams to keep from getting relegated and it makes football more exciting because both teams will go out and perform harder and give us more exciting matches in addition to the already exciting matches between the top teams in a race for the title.
Barcelona won six in a season
2009-2010!

He mentions God and the curtain falls lol
"FOOTBALL" don't need playoffs
For becoming champion with a Play Off system teams basically have to be in top shape just during that short Play Off season - of course you have to qualify for the Play offs but therefore you don´t have to be on the very top of the table but just "good enough" for being over the threshold BUT to become Champion when every single game in the season counts in order to achieve winning a Championship you have to be consistent in top shape during the whole Season in every fxxxing single game...which is a way "fairer" approach in general in behalf of a sporty competition because then only that team wins the Championship who has won the most during a whole season....= most wins = best team = Champion - which sounds absolut "fair", doesn´t it..
But there are leagues with a PO system (for instance Belgium, Austria and some others) , but that is because the country is small therefore there are less teams in their league, therefore there are less games during the season, therefore those add a PO season in order to have roughly as much games at the end as like as big leagues...The main reason why is that there are also international tournaments contemporary in place were teams from the different countries play against each other and in order to be able to compete with those you have to have a constant game rhythm which you don´t have anymore when you don´t play week per week in a competitive setting anymore just because your smaller league has ended already for a month or two, and that is definitively a huge disadvantage...
according to "football documentaries" watch "Welcome to Wrexham"...it is kinda US related because
US actor Rob McElhenney (from the Sitcom "It´s always sunny in Philadelphia") + "Deadpool" actor Ryan Reynolds "bought"/became the main investors of the Welsh Football Club "Wrexham" few years ago. A Football Club playing in the lowest professional league in the UK and actually at that time those 2 actors from across the pond having no fxxxxing clou about Football but their drive/personal motivation why they did it anyway is explained in the documentary so I will not spoil anything..the documentary shows their very 1st Season as Football club owners from the very start..
Well but what I will tell you because it isn´t part of the documentary is that actually this season just few days ago they achieved to get promoted in the next higher league for the next Season...and there are a bunch of YT clips catching that moment.
Majority of the video was right but I will say smaller leagues even if you aren’t a supporter u will here about as majority of people will support there local and their favourite teams
The main difference is football is played with the feet only throw ins after ball is out of play n goalkeeper use their hands American football is played primarily with the hands 👐
Celtic from Scotland have won quadruple trophies, if I'm right
no, now 5 players can change, not 3 anymore.
depends onthe tournment though
16:55 "The Quadruple'
No only 1 team in English football has been in the position to win all 4 (so they reached the Final of the FA CUP, League Cup and Champions league, and could also win the Premier League on the last match of the season
Liverpool are the only team to have actually been in a position where they could do this, and this was last season. Liverpool won the FA CUP and the League Cup but lost the Premier Division title on the last day (despite winning their match) Manchester City won the Title by 1 point and Liverpool lost the Champions League final to Real Madrid.
I dont know if any team in Spain or Italy or even Germany has done a Quadruple, likely candidates would be Real Madrid and AC Milan due to the amount of times they have won the Champions League, not sure there are enough cup competitions in Italy (could be wrong though) Barcelona and Bayern Munich possibly as they have won a few Champions leagues as well, again Germany(Bayern Munich), like Italy(AC Milan) not sure they have enough Cup competitions, but if I was to guess I would guess it's never been done, for certain has never been done in England
if you want to watch games for free, on youtube there are many channels that do streaming I'll give you two examples, Sgorio the Welsh football channel and there is the J league channel where they show the Japanese league, there are others , there would also be the USL (the second league in the USA) but only if you are outside of the USA do they stream the games

OFC = Oceanic Football Confederation. Islands like Fiji and New Zealand
funfact : as far as the OFC region is concerned, the biggest ever win in a World Cup qualifier has been won. On April 11, 2001, Australia beat American Samoa 31-0. It's a goal every third minute and the highlights are on youtube.
I love football, raised in a true football family... But even for me this video was confusing.
Don't ever say "Soccer" if you are in Europe. You may get deported (LOL). Just as a starter when you talked about "Penalties" at the start you mix two things. A foul (bad tackle, handball etc) inside the Penalty area (the 18 yard box around the goal) would result in a Penalty Kick. In this one player from the attacking team places the ball on a spot 12 yards from the goal and attempts to beat the goalkeeper and score a goal. Nobody other than the player taking the Penalty Kick and the Goalkeeper are allowed in the Penalty area until the player kicks the ball. A foul outside the Penalty area is awarded a Free Kick. The team that is awarded the Kick place the ball where the offence took place. None of the opposition can stand less than 10 yards from the Free Kick. They may place a "wall" (just a number of players stood close together) to try and block a direct shot.
ofc is oceania
Playoffs - US style playoffs, at least - would ruin the game in the rest of the world.
No playoffs :(
I think Barcelona done the quadruple 2013? No one done the premier league quadruple yet but Man City will be close
He forgot to mention that the winners in every continents champions league meet in a knockout round once every year
Thats called the Fifa Club World Cup, and the winner is officially the best team in the world, although european teams win it like 90% of the time

I asked chatGPt- explain World Football from grass roots to world cup to an alien. The countries involved, the different governing bodies,FIFA, UEFA, CAF, TheFA, Conmebol and domestic competitions. Their leauge structures. Rules: offside, freekicks, penaties, throwins,etc -
The ANSWER - Football, or soccer as it is sometimes called, is a sport played by millions of people around the world. It is a game where two teams of eleven players each try to score goals by kicking a ball into the opposing team's goal. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins.
At its most basic level, football can be played by anyone, anywhere, with just a ball and a space to play. Children often start playing in their backyards or on the streets, and from there they can progress to local clubs and teams.
There are many different countries involved in football, with varying levels of success and popularity. Some of the most successful football nations include Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Italy, and Spain. However, football is played and enjoyed in countries all around the world.
To help organize football at the international level, there is a governing body called FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association). FIFA is responsible for organizing the World Cup, which is the most prestigious international football tournament. The World Cup is held every four years, and it involves teams from all over the world competing against each other.
In addition to FIFA, there are also regional governing bodies that organize football within specific regions. For example, UEFA (Union of European Football Associations) organizes football in Europe, CAF (Confederation of African Football) organizes football in Africa, and CONMEBOL (South American Football Confederation) organizes football in South America.
Domestically, there are many different leagues and competitions that teams can compete in. The structure of these leagues varies from country to country, but generally, teams will compete against each other in a league format over the course of a season. The team with the most points at the end of the season will usually be crowned the league champions.
There are many different rules that govern how football is played, including offside, free kicks, penalties, throw-ins, and more. Offside occurs when an attacking player is closer to the opponent's goal than both the ball and the second-to-last defender. Free kicks are awarded for various types of fouls, and penalties are awarded for more serious fouls that occur within the penalty area. Throw-ins occur when the ball goes out of bounds, and a player from the opposing team is allowed to throw the ball back into play.
Overall, football is a sport that is enjoyed by millions of people all over the world, and it is deeply ingrained in many cultures and societies.
This gives a rough idea about how the competitions work but doesn't tell you what a Penalty is, how you get a Penalty or the rules around taking a Penalty. I have never called a Penalty a PK but I have noticed that yanks are doing so, of course they would, they reduce everything else to an acronym because words are too hard to say, remember or think about, the shortest the word Penalty would be reduced to is "a PEN". You can't have a wall introduced in a Penalty, its you, the ball, the goal keeper (keeper) and the goal. Everybody else is outside the box until the ball is kicked!

A free kick ( not a FK) can, will have a Wall between the ball and the goal to make it harder to kick the ball into the goal.
There are Direct Free Kicks, where you can kick it into the goal directly, without anyone else touching the ball and indirect free kicks, where someone else from either side must touch the ball before scoring. I once took an indirect free kick, made out I was going to chip it to the far side of the box, the midfielder stood 8 foot away from me and had no intention of going further away, so I asked, quitely, is this a direct free kick, he said no, its indirect, so I side footed the ball forward 6 foot, as if I was cheating, nicking some ground, and he kicked it back and I booted into the back of the net. He looked at me as if I was mad and said "I told you it was indirect!", yep and I kicked it to you and you passed it back, thanks!
You just gotta love Football!
Its a shame they changed the throw in rule, you can't bounce it off a retreating defenders head anymore!😢
Edit due to me using someone elses fat fingers!
