For once, Canada can participate not only in ice hockey, but also in the FIFA World Cup. A completely unserious look at the differences and similarities between the two sports.

For the first time since 1986, Canada – Our second official team in Qatar – Back in the FIFA World Cup. While Canadians dominate ice hockey, their national sport, and are practically born on their feet, soccer is not very popular in the True North. That’s why we’re here to offer Canadian fans a short soccer training course.
The dress to be worn

Football shirts with short sleeves. At every normal World Cup, wearing thick-knit, long-sleeved hockey jerseys would be a no-go—especially for people who are tried and tested in the cold, like the Canadians. But with the World Cup taking place in Qatar and therefore having to be pushed back to November and December, long-sleeved standbys may be a smart option for public viewing at home for once.

Proper planning for a football match is important. “I won’t go to the toilet until the second break” doesn’t work because there is only one break (after 45 minutes). Use it to get everything that needs to be done.
physical contact

Physical examinations and other examinations as well as fist fights in football Unfortunately Not allowed. So the main goal in duels is not to go for the opponent’s body, but to play the ball. Otherwise there is an error whistle. This has to do with the next point.

In hockey, players in pain get up and leave the field. It’s different in football: it’s about showing your pain in the most theatrical way possible. Even if you don’t get hurt at all…

Not a sport for flat earthers. In football, the device for the game is not a puck, but a ball. No wonder the saying goes: “The shot must go into the square.”
kick movement

Kick goals do not count in ice hockey, only minor distractions with the skate are allowed. Both are possible in football. But if you want to be on the safe side, you better kick the ball right.
Rule

Just accept the referee’s decision? Not into football. It is important to send a signal after each whistle and attack the referee with at least three players. The so-called package configuration is part of good form.

Finally, one more thing in common: fans of both sports can look forward to great boxes, which are not allowed a little later due to the millimeter offside decision (even if the rules are slightly different).
