You idiots know that Mexico and China had their own versions of soccer before England was ever a thing, right?
What do British people have to do with soccer? It's more of a Latin American and German sport than it ever is British
Go back to playing faggot shit like rugby and darts and leave the sports to real men
uhm
they codified the rules with the football association. wikipedia is cool man, give it a try sometime

How does it feel that we invented your language too?
How does it feel to know everyone around the world speaks American English?
England invented it.
A guy playing rugby decided to start kicking the ball instead and it caught on as football.
I heard this story in a museum
Mexicans and chinks kicking dead babies around the village doesn't actually count as football.
>>68525859
What does codifying a sport have to do with inventing it?
Trust me, even if England didn't codify it, the sport would still exist. There have been reports in the 1500 and 1600s of various countries playing this kind of football already
It's not that hard to understand. Take that English dick out your mouth
>>68525905
you're trying too hard lad
>>68525962
I challenge anyone to name a better English player than Chicarito
The Mexican games looked nothing like "football"
No idea about China, but it was probably fairly different as well, and it's sure as shit not like it was Chinese merchants, students, clergy, etc. that were going around spreading their version of the game in the late 19th century.

nobody uses british english outside the UK.
colour, favourite etc all look extremely ridiculous to us continental europeans.
we also dont use crisps to talk about chips. we call em chips.
literally nobody uses british english, and we literally cannot even understand what most brits say. literally no continental european who isnt used to scotts/scousers will understand them, but its easy for us to understand americans.

Fuck you. Ireland has nothing to do with the U.K.
And just because they play something doesn't mean they invented it. I haven't seen one shred of evidence that England did anything for soccer aside from codifying it (which would've happened eventually by China, Mexico, France, Germany etc.)

Yes, I'm sure it wasn't uncommon for people to kick things around with their feet.
But the rules of the football we played were codified in England. Get rekt faggot.

everything.
just like we refer to your football as American football, because you codified that way of playing the game. Aussie Rules football is an Australian sport, because they codified it. Gaelic football is Irish, because they codified it.
Any sport can be reduced to throwing, kicking, hitting, punching and said that it has precursors elsewhere, so fucking what?

I find it interesting how similar Mexico soccer fans and England are. We all know that they think they are hot shit in group stages rekking small countries only to geT BTFO by Argentina/Germany in knockout rounds.

It's more like old English, due to the printing presses, continentals spelled words with a U like colour or behaviour whereas the Americans continued to spell them without a U

Look, kicking a ball about and getting it in some sort of goal has probably been around for thousands of years. Nobody can possibly know who truly invented it. When it comes to who started the sport of association football as it's known today though, we invented it, and that's just a fact.

>>68525962
Faggots in this thread think that when the English claim to have invented football (i.e. association football, which we did) that we are claiming to have invented the motion of kicking something with our feet for fun.
Why can't we all be friends no matter where we're from? :)

Greece, Rome, and parts of Central America also claim to have started the sport; but it was England that transitioned soccer, or what the British and many other people around the world call “football,” into the game we know today. The English are credited with recording the first uniform rules for the sport, including forbidding tripping opponents and touching the ball with hands.

Is running a sport? No, no it's not. Running is an activity.
The marathon is a sport, the 100m sprint is a sport, with defined rules and goals.
Kicking a ball is not a sport, it's an activity, an "exercise".
Football is a sport, which was invented by British people.

Uhh what kind of Brazilian person thinks football was invented by the Brits?
Most Brazilian people I know think Brazil invented it
>>68525696
they obviously didn't invent kicking a spherical object or earning points for doing so, that's probably older than shitting, but they made the rules we use today
it's not that hard to understand

Tell that to the IFAB, nerd.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Football_Association_Board
>The International Football Association Board (IFAB) is the body that determines the Laws of the Game of association football. IFAB was founded in 1886 to agree standardised Laws for international competition, and has since acted as the "guardian" of the internationally used Laws; since its establishment in 1904 FIFA, the sport's top governing body, has recognised IFAB's jurisdiction over the Laws.
>It is a separate body from FIFA, though FIFA is represented on the board and holds 50% of the voting power. As a legacy of association football's origins in the British Isles, the other organisations represented are the governing bodies of the game in the four countries of the United Kingdom. Amendments to the Laws require a three-quarter supermajority vote, meaning that FIFA's support is necessary but not sufficient for a motion to pass.

>The Chinese codified soccer nearly 1000 years ago
>The Aztecs also codified soccer as well
Soccer stands for association football you muppet. The chinese codified cuju, and the mexicans 'codified' ōllamaliztli. Not soccer - the game the world plays.
>Association football in itself does not have a classical history.[25] Notwithstanding any similarities to other ball games played around the world FIFA have recognised that no historical connection exists with any game played in antiquity outside Europe.[26] The modern rules of association football are based on the mid-19th century efforts to standardise the widely varying forms of football played in the public schools of England. The history of football in England dates back to at least the eighth century AD.[27]
>>68529896
yYu're talking bollocks mate. There's plenty of clubs founded round the world that were founded in the early 1900's by English ship workers showing up and seeing there was no teams.
It may have been played in some form earlier but the version you see today is the version that the English created and the one that was accepted.
What people in any civilisation don't find out when their young that kicking balls around isn't fun?
>>68525803
Creation =/= origins
>>68525696
There are lots of old versions of football, like Calcio Storico from Italy
But modern football was codified by the English. We are the ones who exported this particular form of the game.
>>68534559
he's confusing the word to name a specific game codified by the English with the act of using a foot to kick a ball.
Putting the laws of the game in motion and making it the current game that it is.The versions from Mexico, China and Russia were all different games.I'm sure cavemen were kicking tumbleweeds or rocks about.

Okay OP, someone here with a little background on this subject coming through.
To keep it brief, as you are clearly one of the subhuman Yanks they want rid of pronto:
Long before the Spic's landed near America-whole which spread the greatest genocide via diseases and even before the Portuguese expanded their various slaver routes towards the far East; England was playing a crude mixture of what is known as today as Football.
Football has various interpretations which is now mostly known in your country as the bastardized version of that which the French decided we had too much influence over 80 odd years ago and thus wrestled away the purer form to create FIFA.
>Why does it come from a oldie English game.
Because we have archaeology, folk lore written down and told, history dating back to the neolithic well documented with trustworthy science. As well as certain rural communities still playing the ancient game to this very day.
>taking credit for "inventing" football
Hilarious shit, football is so intuitive I'm sure people have been playing it in one form or the other ever since the first cavemen started kicking animal heads around.
