In any sport, sportsmanship should be the most important element of the game. It is the most basic tenet or rule of any sport. Respecting teammates, opponents, coaches, umpires, referees and officials is the basic requirement of good sportsmanship. Nowadays it is sad to say that good sportsmanship is lacking in football games. For victory and glory, many footballers have actually forgotten the meaning behind the sport. Hence, you can see nowadays there are many incidences of fighting and attacking the referee in the game.
