football

Il football americano ha regole molto diverse dal calcio europeo, che viene chiamato soccer negli Stati Uniti. La palla ha forma ovale e può essere colpita con il piede, ma anche lanciata con le mani. Ognuno dei quattro tempi in cui è suddivisa la partita comincia con un kickoff , cioè, un calcio alla palla da parte di un giocatore, con i compagni di squadra che cercano di recuperare la palla con le mani. Bisogna quindi correre per portare la palla nel punto di meta avversario. Gli avversari cercano di arrestare il giocatore che ha la palla con un tackle , cioè un placcaggio per bloccarlo a terra.
