Are you game?

You see people lose hope and wander in search of a life,
and you see them neglecting the small corners that have them.
They move on,without a smile,without tears,
and you look down at them, deep inside you laugh at them.

They are those who haven't watched football,
which at first sight is just another sport.
A sport that can bring about war and peace,
a sport that can cross barriers and invade hearts.


Football gives you 90 minutes of life,
a life with joy and agony and glory and pain.
90 minutes when you do nothing else,
but relish and experience the beautiful life.

It speaks the only language this world understands,
it only has the tongue that can pierce hearts effortlessly.
You punch the air or shriek with pain,
Whatever! Life is Football!
