We all have opinions, and my take is that soccer would have to one of the most painful sports to watch...and the carry-on after a goal is scored makes it even worse. I wonder how so many fans and countries get so fanatical about it!
The reason for getting so fanatical, is that it is so hard to score in a match. With footy you can kick the ball over everyone's head and get 6 points. In soccer you have to be able to muster your way through not just defenders, but also a goal keeper with only limited space to get the ball in. Its a restrictive game. Very rare to have a high scoring game.
