O futebol é o esporte mais popular da África. De fato, o futebol é provavelmente o esporte mais popular em todos os países africanos, embora o rugby e o críquete também sejam muito populares na África do Sul.https://exploringafrica.matrix.msu.edu/football-soccer-in-africa/
O futebol foi introduzido na África há mais de 100 anos pelos colonialistas britânicos, belgas, franceses e portugueses. O futebol também é o esporte mais popular na maior parte da Europa, portanto, não surpreende que os colonos europeus tenham introduzido o futebol em suas colônias. HISTÓRIA
O futebol foi introduzido pela primeira vez na África no início da década de 1860 pelos europeus,https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=127600200 devido à colonização da África. Os primeiros jogos gravados foram jogados no continente em 1862 entre soldados e funcionários públicos e não havia regras estabelecidas para o jogo no momento; o historiador Peter Alegi disse que "se espalhou muito rapidamente pelas escolas missionárias, pelas forças militares e pelas ferrovias". As equipes estavam sendo estabelecidas na África do Sul antes de 1900, no Egito e na Argélia durante um período semelhante. O Savages FC (Pietermaritzburg, África do Sul) e o Gezira SC são os clubes de futebol africanos mais antigos que ainda existem. Ambos começaram a tocar em 1882, seguidos por Alexandria SC (1890) e CDJ Oran da Argélia em 1894. Na década de 1930, o futebol estava sendo jogado na África Central.
