The history of football

In 307 BC, that is, during the Warring States period, King Wuling of Zhao reformed and practiced "riding and shooting", and Zhao people learned to ride horses and shoot arrows. Wang Zhao often rides out of town with his cronies, which is very spectacular. One day, when I came to a forest, I saw some rabbits in the forest. As soon as the king opened his mouth, he "captured him alive", so the soldiers divided into four ways and caught him together. I don't want to be scared. Rabbits ran around and escaped from the flat seam of the horse, but found nothing. Everyone shook their heads and sighed. A counselor suddenly brightened up and came forward to offer advice: "Your Majesty, this kind of containment is very interesting. We might as well use the ball instead of the rabbit and play every day without leaving the palace. " "Good idea" Wang Dajia praised "this matter is in your charge". Thus, football was born in China. But I was still riding a horse, called Cuju. In the Han Dynasty, there was a football field dedicated to competitions, which was called "Cheng Ju".

The Tang Dynasty was a prosperous period of Cuju activities. During this period, not only has there been great development, but football has also begun to be exported to the outside world. The first place to land is Britain. Cuju was originally exported as a complete product, but because of the underdeveloped transportation at that time, the means of transportation were very backward. After a long journey of several months, when Cuju arrived in England, the horse was exhausted and there was only one ball left. However, it is such a dance that Britain still regards it as a treasure, which is limited to the exclusive activities of the royal family and prohibits people from enjoying this kind of entertainment. 1 1 century, the Danes invaded England. One day, when the British were digging a battlefield, they accidentally dug up the skulls of several Danes. The British people were furious at the thought of the crime of Danish invasion. They lifted their feet and kicked their skulls hard to relieve their anger, and they felt quite happy playing football. As a result, more and more British people who dug the battlefield took part in the "ball" kick, and a group of children kicked it when they saw it. However, they found that the skull hurts when they kick, so they switched to cow bladder blowing-this is the birth of modern football. This patriotic act touched the king of England.

Pedestrians on the road will encounter unexpected trouble when they touch the ball. So, at that time, when the game came, people had to avoid disasters and close their doors until the game was over.
