Unlike European countries such as Italy and Germany, the United States has been called the "football desert" by some fans, who believe that in the United States, football has always been considered a fringe sport. If the following items are true, this view can be refuted most:. ['The U. S. football team has achieved impressive results in many major international games such as the World Cup, and its ranking in FIFA sometimes even surpasses traditional football powerhouses such as England.', 'Although the U. S. football league started late, it has developed rapidly. Now its league level has surpassed traditional football powerhouses such as Argentina and Brazil.', 'Football has become the second sport for young people aged 12-24 in the United States, and its absolute number of youth football ranks first in the world.', 'Due to the lack of the cultivation of the corresponding football culture soil, those who engage in football in the United States are those who truly love football, and football without complex commercial operations is even more pure.']
