History Soccer:

The earliest known football-type game from Europe was Phaininda from Ancient Greece recorded in the fourth century BCE by Antiphanes (c.408 to 334 BCE) Phaininda was similar to the Greek game Episkyros. An image of an Episkyros player taken from an ancient stone carving held by the Acropolis Museum appears on the UEFA European Championship Cup. Athenaeus, writing in 228 AD, stated the Roman ball game Harpastum was a version of Phaininda. As with pre-codified "Mob Football", the antecedent of all modern football codes, these three games involved more handling the ball than kicking. According to FIFA the competitive game cuju is the earliest form of football for which there is scientific evidence.] Documented evidence of an activity resembling football can be found in the Chinese military manual Zhan Guo Ce compiled between the third and second century BC. Players were tasked with kicking a ball into a net affixed to bamboo poles, using only their feet, chest, back or shoulders. Non-competitive games included kemari in Japan, chuk-guk in Korea and woggabaliri in Australia...............
