American football is a team sport between 2 teams of eleven players on a rectangular field (see the picture ).
When one team has the ball : they must advance down the field, the team that doesn't have the ball must try to stop the other team.
The other team that has the ball has to do 10 yards in four downs or plays. If they do this, they keep the ball and start again, if not the other team gets the ball.
To win, you must get the most points and there are two ways to get points : the first is to put the ball in the end zone of the opposing team or by passing the ball between the two posts of the opposing goal.
