Question
Listen to a short talk about football's popularity. What two reasons does the speaker give for why people might not like the sport? What four reasons does he give to explain its popularity?
Answer
- People don’t like it because it can be very boring / nothing happens / players earn too much money.
- It’s popular because it’s simple to play and understand, you don’t need expensive equipment, no skill is needed, it’s different every time / you don’t know what’ll happen.
