Actually football and soccer are same sport, but they differ in the duration of time, position of players, and the size of the field. First is time. Time which is needed in soccer is 2 × 45 minutes, but 4 × 15 minutes in football. In time, the football clock counts down, stopping for certain events such as incomplete passes, but soccer clock counts upward and does not stop. Second is the position of players. They have a different function and position. The position in football are : offensive line, quarter back, running back, wide, tight end, defensive line, corner back, and the line backer. In soccer are : goalkeeper, center back, wing back, defensive midfielder, central midfielder, winger, attacking midfielder, and striker. Third is the size of the field. A football field is 120 yards long, including two 10-yard deep end zones on either end and 30 yards wide. A soccer field can range from 100 yards to 130 yards long and 50 to 100 yards wide. A regulation-width soccer goal is 8 yards wide. Indeed, Both of this sport are very interesting, but I prefer soccer to watch with my friends.
