Soccer is easily one of the world's most physically demanding sports. The game's strenuous mixture of long-distance running, intermittent sprinting, explosive change of direction and physical contact combines to exact a heavy toll on players. To perform at their best, soccer players need to have a balanced diet that provides them with the necessary nutrients and energy.
Soccer is a strenuous sport. Unless you are a goalkeeper or a certain world champion from a certain South American country known for walking the field, should be prepared to run somewhere between six to nine miles per game.
Carlos Salcedo is regarded as one of Mexico’s most charismatically controversial players and he just keeps giving examples as to why that is.

Kylian Mbappé is tearing apart the 2022 World Cup. The French star has been phenomenal during the tournament, leading the Golden Boot race with five goals and making a solid case to grab the Golden Ball, too.

There is nothing wrong with watching a soccer game alone, but hear us out: why don't you throw an unforgettable party? Sure, there will be people asking you what an offside is or suggesting that soccer goals need to be bigger to have more enticing scoreboards, but that shouldn’t stop you from celebrating this event that occurs once every four years.
20 goals in just 13 games for Manchester City. What Erling Haaland does every time he goes onto a soccer pitch seems out of this world, not human. The Norwegian is mauling every competition he sets foot in and questions are starting to pile up trying to understand how he does what he does.
Exercises? Routines? Diet? What's the darn secret?
