Soccer is BORING!!!!!!!!
But then again, I feel the same way about hockey and lots of Americans are absolutely rabid about hockey.
Imagine how boring NFL football would be if you took away the forward pass. It would just be two teams changing possession back and forth with an occasional punt and an occasional field goal. It would be a snooze fest. Just like soccer.
Unless it's top-flight English Premier League game or the famous El Clásico rivalry between Real Madrid and FC Barcelona, two teams that hate each other for competitive, political and cultural reasons.
