Bretaa y decide si las afirmaciones propuestas son verdaderas o falsas:
A number of major sports originated in the United Kingdom, including football (soccer),
rugby football (rugby), golf, cricket, tennis and boxing. The pre-eminent sport in the UK is
football. The UK does not compete as a nation in any major football tournament. Instead,
the home nations compete individually as England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
It is because of this unique four-team arrangement that the UK currently does not compete
in football events at the Olympic Games. However, a united team will probably take part
in the 2012 Summer Olympic Games, as these will be hosted in London. The English and
Northern Irish football associations have confirmed participation in this team while the
Scottish FA and the Welsh FA have declined to participate. The UK also hosts many
world-renowned football clubs, such as Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal in
England and Celtic and Rangers in Scotland. Clubs compete in national leagues and
competitions and some go on to compete in European competitions. British teams are
generally successful in European Competitions, including the following European
Cup/UEFA Champions League winners: Liverpool (five times), Manchester United
(twice), Gaelic football and hurling are popular sports in Northern Ireland with the counties
of Tyrone and Armagh both being very successful in Gaelic football in recent years.
Although not as popular across the whole country, shinty or camanachd (a sport derived
from the same root as the Irish hurling and similar to bandy) is popular in the Scottish
Highlands, sometimes attracting crowds numbering thousands in the most sparsely
populated region of the UK.
