Soccer Funs

The first ever women’s World Cup was held in 1991 in China, and was won by the United States.

The Romans played a game named ‘harpastum’, which can be said to be the ancestor of the modern game of soccer. In the early days of the game, referees used to wave a handkerchief to control the players and the game, and whistles were introduced in the game only in the year 1878.

No one knows exactly when soccer was created, but the earliest versions of the game can be traced back 3,000 years.
