I have my own opinions about Soccer. I have never liked it. I can't help noticing in Britain, football is far more popular among the celtic and Briton population - those descended from medeterranian tribes. When you look at the world cup winners the list consists mostly of Latin and Latin American teams - Italy, Brazil, Argentina and Uraguay. England has a notoriously bad football team.
My own opinion is that football is all about being crafty (hinterhältig), like basketball, which is why the latin world excels at it.
Germanic sports are things like rowing, tennis and athletics and of course the winter sports more than soccer.
