Table football, also known as foosball[a] or table soccer, is a tabletop game loosely based on association football.[1] Its object is to move the ball into the opponent's goal by manipulating rods which have figures attached resembling football players of two opposing teams. Although its rules often vary by country and region when the game is played casually, competitive-level table football is played according to a unified code.
