What is "foosball"?
Foosball is a game played on a table that mimics soccer. The table has rods with small figures attached to them, and players use the rods to control these figures and try to score goals by hitting a small ball into the opponent’s net. Players take turns or play in teams, controlling the figures by turning, pushing, or pulling the rods to move them and strike the ball. The game requires quick reflexes, teamwork, and strategic thinking. Foosball is often played in bars, clubs, or homes for fun and friendly competition.
