What's your favourite sport, Susan?
Football.
Soccer or rugby?
I prefer soccer. It's a splendid game. But, like most of us, I just watch it. I watch a soccer match nearly every Saturday afternoon either at the local stadium or on TV. What about you, John?Do you play football?
I'm afraid not. And I don't watch it either. I know it's Britain's most popular outdoor game, but I never liked it, not even when I was at school.
But don't you watch the Cup finals and the great international matches between British teams and other national teams?
Very rarely. My favourite game is cricket. I used to be quite a good cricket player when I was at school and I've kept it up ever since.
It's a very English game, isn't it?
Yes, it is. It has become popular in the Commonwealth countries. Do you ever watch the matches between England and the other Commonwealth countries?They're very interesting and exciting.
Yes, I watch them on TV.
