Football (soccer) is not supposed to be a game where you need to display toughness (some may disagree due to the way some players behave). The agility of some of the players and how they weave their way through others and control the ball is proof of that, a tug of the shirt is a foul etc, it's a non contact sport after all
Each to their own eh
I like watching table tennis too. One hates watching Golf but one simply adores playing.
