The comparative study on football between China and the UK1. INTRODUCTIONFootball is a kind of popular sports that needs the team work of the players nowadays. As we know, the ancient football was originated in China and the modern football was originated in the UK. According to the wikipedia, modern football is known as one of the worlds most widely carried out and influential sports. And modern football even be considered as the worlds best sports. In times of peace, it was also known as the no smoke of war between countries” and even be considered as an art because of its richness in content and appeal. Because of these I mentioned above, I would like to study on football between China and UK. (1)2. SIMILARITIESBoth two countries have incompetent administrations.Either the FA or Chinese Football Association is incompetent. As a decision-making body of the countrys football affairs, both of them are not able to maintain the honor and interests of their own countries. (2)Both two countries have the coaches who are short of technical level.Poor performance of the team, the coach will certainly have to bear most of the responsibility. For example, Coach Steve McClaren had done a very good job when he was coached in Middlesbrough. But when he was transferred to lead England in the World Series, he has shown his lack of experience apparently and resulted in the failure of European Championship qualifiers.(2)Both two countries football players have a large number of scandals.There are many scandals about violence, pornography, drugs and gambling of the football players and these has made adverse effects to society. (2)Both two countries football are associated with violence.According to the textbook, Football hooligans, supporters of rival teams, sometimes clash before, during and after matches and occasionally run riot through the town, breaking windows and beating each other up. But this situation just appears among a small number of people. (3) 3. DIFFERENCEThe originChina is known as the original place of ancient football. The ancient football was first being recorded in history books in Han Dynasty. And it has become very popular among ordinary people and has become an elegant activity in the palace in Tang and Song Dynasty. Of course, due to the limitations of the feudal society of ancient China, this kind of kickball activities which was known as ancient football ultimately did not develop into a fair competition for the principles of modern football. And this qualitative leap was completed by British capitalism. (4)The UK is known as the original place of modern football. According to the textbook, “The idea of sports having seasonslike the football season-also comes from the natural rhythms of an agricultural society, where the timing of harvests and the general weather affected how people spent their time. And there are legends that suggest that games like football and rugby actually derived from the “sport” of ancient warriors celebrating victory by kicking around the decapitated head of an enemy. There is a similar grisly tale told about origins of bowling: it is said that in ancient times, Scottish warriors rolled the skulls of their enemies along the grass for sport.”(3)The emphasisAccording to a research, Londons population base is almost like Beijing, but it has nearly 3000 football venues scattered in every corner of the city and just only a small place like the famous Hackney Marshes region had more than 70 blocks of the audience pitch. In Beijing, the researcher can only find a total of 30 sites, only one percent in London. Most of which are located in universities, but the data mentioned before has included the public stadium and the Temple of Heaven Park where near the National Football Training Center (5) Educational attitudesWe Chinese like to educate young people by teaching them many professional knowledge and hope they can grasp all the knowledge at a time. But the United Kingdom is different, their coaches would like to teach them the most basic knowledge about football and is generally not involved in the juvenile stage sophisticated tactics knowledge. Britishs education on young people is to pay more attention to the players potential and characteristic. And their players in the field generally do not pay attention to the tactical coordination and discipline. (6) Attitude of the audienceGenerally, 90% of British people like football. Even the old man on crutches and the disabled go to see the football matches. British fans are passionate and football just likes a part of their life, but Chinese fans are more concern about the result of the football match. In the UK, when you turn on the TV, nine in ten programs are playing football matches. These all can show how good the football atmosphere it is in the UK.

CONCLUSIONAlthough both China and the UK have their inadequate, the UKs Premier League is the worlds leading soccer league and has a huge influence. Some people even believe that the current Premier League represents the highest level of football and is definitely one of the top level football leagues nowadays. Thats because they pay much attention to football and we can find this by the number of pitches, audiences enthusiasm for football and so on that I mentioned above. Only China try to learn from the UK modestly, will our football has a more hopeful future. (7)5. REFERENCE(1) /wiki/%E8%B6%B3%E7%90%83(2) /thread-281674-1-1.html(3)Unit 10, t
