Soccer is the world's favorite sport. It has around 3 billion (十亿) fans―about half the world's population (AO) ! And about 300 million (百万) people play this game. That's 4 percent (百分之) of the world's population !
It's hard to say where soccer was born. Many people in old days played early forms of this modern (现代化的) game. Cu ju,a ballkicking game inChina,was reported (报道) as early as 2 ,500 B. C.(公元前) . Around the same time in Greece,people were also playing a similar ball game without using their hands. But modern soccer didn't become official until 1863. An Englishman called Cobb Marley and other people made up the FIFA. which organizes (组织) the World Gup.
It's not easy to tell what makes soccer so popular. But one reason (原因) is how easy the sport is. Soccer needs only two feet and a ball. This makes it a sport that many poor countries can easily play. Some of the sport's best players come from these countries.
No one knows who will at the next World Cup. But one thing is certain. The world will be watching.
