Fastest players is it soccer or football?
What sports boasts the fastest sprinter basically in your opinion. I am not biased at all towards either sport I am a fan of both to be honest. My friends watch a lot of weekend soccer matches and some of the guys that play out on the wings are fast as hell! A couple of my friends told me players like Theo Walcott, Aaron Lennon, Cristiano Ronaldo, Obafemi Martins, Agbonlahor and a few others are really fast. When comparing them to nfl players I think the soccer players are faster and their is more to be said about their speed. The soccer players sprint all out all game and then jog inbetween where as football the plays last 6-7 seconds then 30 second break. With all things being equal I youtubed some videos of those guys I mentioned and they incredibly fast and a lot of the speed is done while dribbling a ball with their feet. Most of these really fast guys have little bulk in terms of their upper body which makes me wonder how important a big chest is for sprinting. What do you guys think and before you answer take a look at some of those guys and keep in mind the field is 120 yards long and not 100 yards like football and the field is about 15 yards wider as well.
