Who started football in the world?
Football, also known as soccer in some countries, has evolved over time and its exact origins are a matter of debate. However, there are records of various forms of football-like games being played in different parts of the world for centuries.
One of the earliest known versions of football was played in ancient China, called "Cuju," which involved kicking a ball through a net. There are also accounts of similar games being played in ancient Greece and Rome.
In the modern era, football as we know it today has its roots in England, where the first official football match was played in 1863 under the auspices of the newly-formed Football Association. The game gradually spread throughout the world, and today it is the most popular sport in the world, played and watched by millions of people of all ages, genders, and nationalities.
