Th is text examines the similarities between football and dance. In doing so,the focus is not on the many possible metaphoric relationships between footballand dance. Th is happens for example when fi lm clips of football gamesare called ‘football ballet’, or when fans are dancing Samba, or when playersperform a dance with corner fl ags. Th e text rather aims to answer the questionwhich structural characteristics football and dance share.
