Let’s talk about games created about soccer. FIFA was played for many years, but something bad happened to it. FIFA lost the license to the games. So for the next game, instead of being FIFA 24, it was FC 24, the “FC” meaning “Football Club”. The abbreviation for FIFA is the Federation International de Football Association. What happened to FIFA? Here’s an explanation from US Legal Forms: “The end of the license deal between FIFA and EA was announced in May 2022. The primary motivation appears to have been financial, with FIFA demanding to increase the license fee to $1 billion every four years. This is a substantial increase on the $150m that FIFA reportedly earned for the use of their name in 2022.”
Soccer is played on a grassy field called a football pitch or soccer pitch. The field is rectangular and must be between 100-130 yards. The width of a soccer field is the same or bigger than an American football field in length. Imagine how big that is! You have to have some amazing stamina to run from the start of the football pitch to the end of the football pitch. Most footballers work on their stamina to run across the pitch. They also work on speed to run the fastest from end to end.
