A Game for the World
1段 These days, football is one of the most popular sports in the world. Given that Neil Armstrong wanted to take a football to the Moon, we could even say that it is also the most popular sport out of this world! The history of the game goes back over two thousand years to Ancient China. It was then known as cuju(kick ball), a game using a ball of animal skins with hair inside. Goals were hung in the air. Football (as we know it today) started in Great Britain, where the game was given new rules.

You don't need expensive equipment; even the ball doesn't have to cost much money. All over the world you can see kids playing to their hearts' content with a ball (made of plastic bags); just like Pelé did when he was a boy.

This example shows that football is a simple and cheap sport. You don't need expensive equipment —even a ball made of plastic bags is enough to enjoy the game. This connects to Pelé's childhood because he also grew up playing football with simple, homemade balls. It emphasizes that football's popularity comes from its simplicity简单 and the joy快乐 it brings, regardless of background or wealth.
3段 Another factor behind football’s global popularity is the creativity and excitement on the field. It is fun enough to attract millions of people.

4段 What's more, football has become one of the best ways for people to communicate: it does not require words, but everyone understands it. It breaks down walls and brings people together(on and off the field). Take, for example, the famous football game on Christmas Day 1914.

This moment is remembered because it shows that even in the middle of war—a time of conflict—soldiers could put down their guns and connect with human beings through football.
