Description
According
to Dictionary.com, soccer is defined as a "form of football
played between two teams of 11 players, in which the ball
may be advanced by kicking or by bouncing it off any part
of the body, but the arms and hands, except in the case of
the goalkeepers, who may use their hands to catch, carry,
throw, or stop the ball."
Soccer sound like a simple game but there is a lot of physics involved behind the sport. To understand the physics of soccer we should understand Newtons laws of motion, momentum, drag, friction and Magnus effect in soccer.
