The game of football may have started in Roman times. It seemed that the Romans played the game very much like our modern rugby with a round ball. In the 16th century, English villagers played football and they often had almost a hundred players on each side. It was a very common game which was very rough and even dangerous until the early part of the 19th century. In the 18th century a Frenchman who had watched a rough game of football in a village wrote:“I could not believe that those men were playing a game. If this is what Englishmen call playing, I would not like to see them fighting.” It was then played in schools in England and soon spread all over Britain and Europe. Until 1850,it was not possible to have football matches between one school and another, because each school had different rules! So rules had to be made.
It was only in 1863 that the first set of rules for all football clubs was agreed upon. Nearly 150 years later, football has become by far the most popular sport in the world.
