Millions of people like to attend matches, watch them on TV or listen to them on the radio to cross their fingers for their favourite team.
Many sports have their origins in Britain, that is why Britain is sometimes called the cradle of sport. Two types of rugby, modern game of hockey, cricket, darts, tennis or boxing were invented in Britain. Golf, also called the sport of rich people, has its origins in Scotland.
