Football formation history

Football originated in China. In the Tang Dynasty, cuju was popular. This "lift" means that cuju football is an ancient sports activity with a long history. It originated from Cuju, an ancient ball game in China, and later spread to Europe through Arabs, and developed into modern football. Therefore, the hometown of football is China. It is said that before the Middle Ages, the Greeks and Romans had already started playing football. On a rectangular court, they put the ball on the white line in the middle and kicked it to the other court with their feet. At that time, they called this game "Baja Storm". Modern football originated in England. It originated from a war between them and Denmark in the12nd century. After the war, the British saw the head of a Danish soldier on the ground. Because Britain hated Danish soldiers very much, it kicked them in the head. By the beginning of19th century, football was quite popular in some countries in Europe and Latin America at that time, especially in capitalist Britain. It was not until 1848 that the first written rule of football, Cambridge Rules, was born.

The so-called "Cambridge Rules" are some rules formulated by three universities in London, Oxford and Cambridge in the early 9th century. At that time, each team had 1 1 people. At that time, there were ten students and a teacher living in each dormitory in the school, so a dormitory-to-dormitory game was played, with each side having 1 1 person. At that time, the current 1 1 football match began. 1863101On October 26th, the British Football Association held a very important meeting in the history of modern English football. The return of the competition was drafted, but some terms are far from today's rules. For example, there was a rule at that time: when the ball entered the space between goalposts or crossed the space above, no matter how high it was, as long as it was not thrown, hit or transported by hand, it was considered as winning. At that time, the position and formation of players were also different from today's: each team had a goalkeeper, a defender, an avant-garde and eight forwards. Soon after the rules were made, the formation changed: one goalkeeper, two defenders, three avant-garde and five forwards. So there are eleven players in the last game.

However, many data show that the appearance of ancient football in China is earlier than that in Europe, with a longer history. In ancient China, football was called Cuju or Tuju, both of which meant kicking, and Juju was the name of the ball. The word "Cuju" first appeared in Historical Records, Bielu by Liu Xiang in Han Dynasty and Biography of Meicheng by Yan Shizeng in Tang Dynasty. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, "Cuju" was very popular and became an elegant activity in the court. 1958 in July, Dr. Havelange, former president of FIFA, came to China and said that football originated in China. Of course, due to the limitation of feudal society, the ancient cuju activity in China did not develop into a modern football sport based on the principle of "fair competition". This qualitative leap took place in capitalist Britain.

The embryonic form of football.

England is the birthplace of modern football. According to historical records, football activities similar to today appeared in medieval England. By the beginning of19th century, football was quite popular in Britain. Due to the need to form a unified view on the football match,1October 26th,1863 10, relevant people gathered at Fremason Hotel in queen street, London, to discuss and agree to set up a football association. In addition to announcing the formal establishment of the Football Association, the meeting also formulated and adopted relatively unified football competition rules, which are the embryonic form of modern football competition rules. Its establishment marks the birth of modern football.

With the increasingly consolidated status of the English Football Association, its influence in the whole country is also growing, so the proposal of holding the Challenge Cup appeared on July 20th, 187 1. This proposal was put forward by Charles alcock, Secretary General of the Football Association. He hopes to attract all members of the association to participate in the competition and promote exchanges by holding the Challenge Cup. 187 1 year1October 16, this motion was passed.

The people of England are proud that they not only founded the first football association, but also organized the first international match, that is,1the match between England and Scotland on October 30th, 1872, 165438. The establishment of the English Football Association has promoted the vigorous development of football in some countries in Europe and Latin America, and various countries have established football associations one after another, thus promoting the establishment of FIFA and UEFA. It can be seen that England is indisputably called the originator of modern football.
