Rules of the Game: Coaches and other officials must remain within the confines of the technical area except in special circumstances, for example, a trainer or doctor entering the field of play, with the referee’s permission, to assess an injured player.
The rules of the game were first written down in 1863 by the newly formed Football Association in England.
The mascot for the 1970 FIFA World Cup in Mexico was a boy character named Jaunito.
The most prolific goal-scorer in the North American Soccer League was Italian Giorgio Chinaglia of the New York Cosmos: 242 goals in 254 games.
The current World Cup trophy will be retired in 2038 when there is no more room for the champion's name.
Wait.
