Football has been played for more than 150 years, and today, when watching television broadcasts or matches in stadiums, we do not think about simple things: - why the goal is rectangular in shape; - why we say that a penalty kick is awarded, although the distance from the points to the goal are less than 11 meters; - why the half lasts exactly 45 minutes, and not, for example, an hour; - where did football fans come from; - what game, similar to football, was played back in medieval Florence and continues to be played to this day, and about much, much more. The answers to all questions are here, in the alphabet, where for each letter there is a story about a particular subject or concept related to football and its history. These are not abstruse scientific articles, as in an encyclopedia, but short educational stories with vivid, sometimes funny examples from real football life.
