Football (Soccer) is played by teams of eleven players each, with one goalkeeper per team. The objective is to score goals by kicking or heading the ball into the opponent's net while defending one's own. The game is divided into two halves, each lasting 45 minutes, with a 15-minute halftime interval. In the Olympic format, teams play round robin matches before advancing to single-elimination knockout rounds.
Preliminary stages will occur across multiple host cities (to be determined) and finals stages will take place at Rose Bowl Stadium.
