Soccer can change your life

In these paragraphs I will tell you about my final work. First of all, we have to know the theme. So the theme of my final work is soccer, I will let you know where soccer was created, its history, its evolution, and I will make the comparison of the old soccer and the new one. We will compare many things like the players, the boots, the balls, the grounds, where they were transmitted and how it evolved to be what it is now.

For this work we will mainly focus on modern football since it generates a great impact on society and is widely seen and played around the world. My three favorite players are Thiago Alcantara, a midfielder of Spanish nationality who currently plays for Liverpool, my second favorite player is James Rodriguez, this is a Colombian national, from my country and that is why I like him so much. He is also a midfielder and plays for Everton in England and my last player is Neymar Jr, he is my idol and my role model. I admire his life and his football history a lot since he was born in a very poor neighborhood of Sao Paulo, Brazil and with everything and that he brought forward his family, and helped his parents a lot. He is now playing for the P.S.G of France.

So in conclusion, I am going to do a presentation on various topics. The history of soccer and its evolution, The history of my three favorite players, the history of the teams they play for and the comparison in photos of its beginning and today. All this using different tools. As they are: Juxtapose, genially, google drive, for information my books and google, and for images google photos. So this would be what my final work is, Roberto. I hope you really like it.

Here we have ann old soccer uniform. We can see that in the actuality, the players are equipted with most modern clothes. An example could be the shorts. In the past they played with long pants and now, the athletes play with shorts to be more comfortable.

Now, here we have some jambs. Ones from the past and ones from the actuality. Can you guess which ones are from this epoch? Yes, you are correct. I´ts easy. We can see that the old ones are made out of leather, they are sewn with some threads and they have a very plane design. Now, with the updated ones, we can see they are made of plastic, instead of threads they are pasted with silicone and the can vary their designs. In this case we have choosen the blue design of Neymar.
