Big football matches are always exciting affairs．Besides the action on the field, the noise the crowd makes really creates the unique atmosphere．At this summer’s World Cup, you can be sure that every country’s fans will be in full voice，supporting their teams．
The football chant(口号)is as old as the sport itself．It’s a way for fans to express their support for their team．It’s not uncommon for the noise of supporters to provide the encouragement for a team to win a match．Most agree that a chant is for building a great atmosphere and to support the team．
One of the most famous football songs is the Liverpool club anthem(颂歌)You’Never Walk Alone，originally from a 1945 Broadway show，which was adopted by Liverpool and is sung
before every match．It has been said that as soon as the opposite hears the song，they become
aware of how tough winning at Anfield (Liverpool’s stadium)will be．
The key to a good football song is that it should be simple．It has to he easy for all fans to
sing along with．When I went to watch Beijing Guo’an last season, I could join in one chant
though I could only speak a little Chinese．“Beijing wo ai ni。”the Guo'an fans sang—you
didn't have to be gifted to work out what that meant.
At the World Cup，the first songs you’ll hear at matches will he the national anthems．Fans and players join together to sing the anthems before each match, and it is considered a mark of
respect that the opposite remains silent while each team's an them is being sung．
So, even though I’ll be supporting England from home in the summer, you can be sure I'll be
chanting at my TV：“En-ger-land, En-ger-land, En-ger-land!”
