[quote=Anonymous]Personally, I think it's beautiful because you watch and enjoy it for the sporting and playing, not the scoring. As a slight side note, I think that one of the reasons that it hasn't caught on in America like it has in, well, pretty much every other corner of the world is because we Americans tend to be pretty impatient about sports (and in general, really) compared to almost all other nations. America tend to gravitate towards high(er) scoring games - like basketball, football, etc. But many soccer matches - the best ones uaually - are no scoring or very lowing scoring games. It about the passes, the dribbling, the teamwork, the anticipation, the constant movement that glides across the field. And if you just think about the pure athleticism of the players - having to be constantly running for two 45 periods while playing - well, that's just amazing. [/quote]
