2. Soccer or Football?
2.1. I believe that the two sports are very unsafe in their own ways. Football athletes wear a lot of safety gear, yet still get hurt. Soccer athletes wear only shin guards and they are still capable of becoming severely injured. I have no experience from football so I couldn't say that football is more dangerous. I don't think soccer and football are equally dangerous but the two sports aren't safe due to the amount and or kinds of injuries you can suffer from them.
