Anecdotally, here’s why I prefer football over soccer (to watch, soccer is more fun to play). Soccer is an hour of the ball moving back and forth across the field and sometimes it goes in the net. There’s not much variation minute by minute. I know a lot of people complain because football is so stop and start, but for me, it allows tension to build in a way that soccer doesn’t. As long as you know the basic rules, there is a lot more anticipation.
I watched 3 games this weekend where the winner was determined in I think the final minute. That tension is what makes it so exciting. 2nd and goal, 25 seconds on the clock. 3rd and goal, 20 seconds on the clock. 4th and goal, they need a touchdown to tie. They got the touchdown! Do they go for a standard point after to go into overtime or do they risk going for the 2 point conversion to win? I’m on the edge of my seat. Soccer is much more binary. They score or they don’t and then they keep dribbling and passing.
