American Football
American football is a team sport played on a rectangular field with goalposts at each end. Two teams, consisting of 11 players each, aim to score points by advancing an oval ball into the opponent's end zone or kicking it through the goalposts. Points can be scored through touchdowns, field goals, and conversions. The game is divided into four quarters, and teams alternate between offense (trying to score) and defense (trying to stop the opposing team). Key aspects include strategy, physicality, and teamwork, making it a dynamic sport that emphasizes both athletic skill and tactical planning.
