Football is the common language of millions of people all over the world, including
Countless children and teenagers. Young people are playing in narrow city alleys. They are playing in the refugee camp. They are playing in the abandoned swimming pool. In parking lots, war zones and street corners-where there are young people, there is football.
At the United Nations Headquarters, children played football at the founding ceremony of the FIFA-UNICEF alliance. But this sport is more than just a game. This is an active lifestyle. This is a way to promote the peaceful settlement of conflicts. This is a tool to attract young bodies away from the temptation of drugs, unsafe sex or violence. This is a way to help ensure that young people grow up healthily and with self-esteem.
In addition, the Convention on the Rights of the Child lists play as one of the basic rights of all children, which is also a manifestation of the right to play.
This is the history of the World Cup (not bad, you can refer to it:)
