Today on ArcNews, with the FIFA Football World Cup happening in Qatar, we asked students about football and about their favorite sports.
If I'm being honest, I don't usually watch football matches that much, but today, with the start of the World cup 2022, I would say that my opinion absolutely changed ! In fact, I discovered the incredible feeling of supporting a team, watching them play, celebrating their victory. You go to school wondering when the next game is and betting with your friends on who's going to win. So yes, I would say, today, that I do like football. This has maybe something to do with my love for sports in general: I've been horseriding since I'm eight and I swim twice a week in my town. I really enjoy doing and watching these sports on TV. Finally, I think this is the healthiest thing a teen can do. C.C.S.
Firstly, I love football because everybody shares a good moment. I love the supporters’ energy during a match. I'm very happy and proud when my favourite team wins the game. It makes me feel happy when I see fans shout and sing when their team wins. It's a good moment when I am with my family and friends. I think events, like the football world cup's opening ceremony, are something we will never forget. However, it's a little boring. I prefer track and field because it's fast and more interesting. A.
Hi ! We enjoy football because we like competition. We think this sport teaches us to be proud and to stay loyal after defeat. It’s important for us to support our football club. We think this sport creates a link with everybody around the world because it’s popular, but there’s a bad side in this sport,for example when crazy supporters can be dangerous because of their reaction after losing a match. Personally,we prefer track and field,we love to run, to jump and to throw. We also love this sport because it’s open for everyone. There’s a lot of activities like long jump sprint or pole volt and throwing of disk so we think it’s really inclusive ! In this sport the goal is to break a record. And you, do you like football ? And which sport do you prefer !? L. A. M.
Hello Dear Readers, One of my beloved fans “melanie91” asked me if I could respond to the question “Do you love football ?”. So here it is…It’s a good coïncidence because the World Cup just began last week. I hope I won’t break anyone’s heart but it’s not my cup of tea. I don’t hate it but I don’t love it either ! I found the game too long and it bores me. But I like the vibes of the game and watching my brothers play. Personally, I prefer scuba diving. If we don’t count the break of last year that I took for my Brevet, I have practiced this sport for six years. Now, I’m trying to get to my level 1. I already have reached the bronze, silver and gold level. I love this sport because it’s an aquatic sport and I can discover the under sea’s world. With all my love, N.
We love football because this is a popular team sport and an individual sport. When they win, the entire team wins. If they win, they win because everybody has done a good game. However, if the team loses it is because everybody was bad. We also like basketball and every other team sports. We really like the fans of football because they are so vivid and so colorful there are living the match with the players. We feel a real connection to the players when we are in the public. O. Y. C. P.
Today, we gonna talk about sport, and particulary football. Personally, I love this sport because it’s really beautiful and it makes me happy. Football is so much for me, and not just a game. I like the dynamism and movements of players, the songs and the electricity of the stadium. This sport brings people together. You can support your country and your favorite team, and you’re proud of them when you win. However, I hate racism, cheating and haters. I like track and field too. This sport is generous and often contributes to many causes and good actions, like the « walk against hunger ». N.
First of all, we love football because we like the spirit of football and the vibes of this sport. Actually, we support France because we live there and we think we will win the World Cup. Secondly, we like dance because it’s so beautiful, creative and always original. And to conclude dance has a good ambiance it’s so amazing . But it’s only our opinion ! Bye! B.A.C.T. Hello dear readers ! First of all, we like football, especially for big events like World Cup or Olympic Games, because it gathers countries and it’s asymbol of the union of nations. Then, thanks to these get togethers, everybody can enjoy oneself and share a good moment. Finally, we also love basketball because it is a team sport. We have practiced this sport for 8 years. R. C.
Football is a sport which brings people together. I love football. I think it’s a beautiful and fun sport, and it’s not very difficult to play. You just need a ball and one friend with you. Whereas you can play alone but it’s not so fun (you can play against a wall and stop the ball like a goal). However, I love other sports too. For examples, I love fencing. It’s more difficult to do fencing in the street, but it’s very cool. This sport is very old. I began fencing when I was five. P. M. With the international football competition which has been going on in Qatar for a few weeks, everyone's relationship with one an another is a bit tense here, at the ARC News office. A civil war is slowly taking place and because of what ? Seven words : They.Don't.Support.The.Same.Football.Team. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but it really is. So, since they're all telling their opinion,I've decided to do the same ! To begin, I think it's a great sport. No doubt on this ! The rules are quite simple to understand, the dynamic is nice, the energy and the union of the fans are contagious. Even as a not-such-a-big-fan myself, I can enjoy a game and be enthusiastic if my country’s team is winning However, I think it’s a bit overrated. Let me explain. First of all, it’s a very masculine world. The men’s world cup always has a great and huge coverage, while the women’s one is barely mentionned even if they play as well as the man. Second of all, a lot of money is spent in those tournaments and the players are very well (too much) paid. It’s their jobs, and yes of course they deserve to be paid, but receiving an amount of 20 000 euros for running after a ball is lost money that could be used more wisely. And lastly, there’s plenty of other good sports ! Archery for example. The patience and the precision you must have to practice this. And the satisfaction of seeing your arrow reach the yellow circle ! What a refreshing feeling ! To conclude, football is a great sport wich can create a sense of community and bring people together, but many other sports can too. C.
First of all, we don’t really like football but we don’t hate it. It is just that we don’t understand the goal of this sport. Is football just running after a ball ? Or is it a way to defend a cause ? Surprisingly we enjoy watching the World Cup and also it is a way to spend time with our family and friends. Sadly, football has a dark side like racisme and match fixing. But luckily football is not the only sport that exists. There are other sports that we prefer, like swimming. We love the feeling of our body moving in the water like we are free. Swimming is an elegant sport and there are many form of swimming like synchronised swimming and there are different type of swim. In comparaison, we like watching swimming and football but we prefere swimming than playing football. What about you, do you you prefere football or swimming ? H. M.M.
Hi everybody, First of all, football is a good sport. 20 sportsmen or sportswomen who are runing after a ball and 2 goalkeepers that makes a good game ! However, a lot of fans, or players are stupid, they do theater, because of this, I don’t like this sport. Not because of the game, yet, because of the fans’ spirit and the bad message the players sometimes convey. I prefer basketball because the spirit is better than football. And everybody can touch the ball often ! M.
Hello ! Dear readers, To begin, I don't really love football but I don't hate it either. I just simply like it for the good vibes, principally in the FIFA World Cup and it's can be cool because everyone knows this sport. The players can inspire younger generations, make us happy by winning the cup and sharing their joy. Everyone gets together. Football has an "ugly side" with racist chants or match fixing... and it' s not very good. Secondly, I prefer to watch archery competition or swimming competition because I practice this sports and I think they are more calm and relaxing. These sports are also very technical. Swimming is faster but I like it and I like to see when swimmers beat the record. I love to look at their technical skills, see how they do it to try to improve myself. And you ? What do you think of football and what are your favorite sports ? Thank you for reading and see you soon ! L.
Firstly, we don't know if we like or dislike football because we haven't got any interest in the Championships’ League 1. But we love watching the French team in the FIFA World Cup. However, this year is unacceptable ! The fact that it takes place in Qatar, in Doha. It is not at all ecological. So, we prefer horseriding because we think this sport is so much more moral and it agrees with our values. In this sport, it isn't only about the horse or the horserider. Both form a couple, a team, a partnership. They need connexion between them. E. J.
Football is just a game. I don’t like football because the players are just running after a ball. Football is overrated. The World Cup has killed lots of people in order to build the stadium in Qatar. For me is just unfair. I prefer rollerblading in my skatepark. I enjoy spending a good time with my friends without competition. We don’t need millions of dollars for rollerblading. L.
I don't like football because I think it's boring and I hate the noise and the buzz during matches, it's tiring. Especiallly now with the championships in Qatar, this sport needs stadiums, but their constructions pollute a lot. I also think this sport is unfair because women don't have a big place in this sport. I prefer riding horses because it is a beautiful sport. The athletes can communicate with an intelligent animal. It's a hard sport because the horses need to be educated in order to perform in championships. However, in this sport, men arr not respresented enough and it's sad. J.
