American Football is a team sport played primarily in the United States, characterized by two teams of eleven players each. The objective is to score points by advancing the football into the opposing team’s end zone, either by carrying it, passing it, or kicking it through the goalposts. The game is played on a rectangular field, and it involves a series of plays where the offense (the team with the ball) attempts to gain yardage and score, while the defense tries to stop them and regain possession of the ball.
American Football is known for its strategic complexity, physical intensity, and formalized rules, including specifics on player positions, scoring methods, and game structure. The game consists of four quarters, and the total elapsed time can extend due to various stoppages. Popularity has led to significant cultural impact, highlighted by events such as the Super Bowl, which showcases the championship of the National Football League (NFL).
