Article analysis

The article “why soccer is the best sport in the world”(http://www.kypost.com/dpp/sports/why-soccer-is-the-best-sport-in-the-world1276271476763) is a ten piece article that analyzes ten of the foremost reasons why soccer is the greatest sport in the world. I am analyzing the final article in this series, which explains that soccer is the best sport in the world because of the anticipation that involved in the game. The purpose of this article is to persuade you to share the same opinion as the author, the opinion that soccer is the best sport in the world.  And, more specifically, to persuade you that anticipation is one of the greatest aspects of the game of soccer.

I believe that this is a reliable source because it is copyrighted and also uses credible and useful facts. It explains that soccer contains much more anticipation than any sport in the worlds because it culminates only once every four years, also, because it is the only sport to have world championship outside of the Olympics. The article speaks about how soccer is the lowest scoring game in the world, and one centimeter, one second, one miss, or one goal could be the difference between a successful career and a world cup victory, or defeat and desolation.

Although this source is reliable I believe it is biased. I believe this because the article uses strong, definitive statements such as “soccer is the best sport, or soccer is exciting.” Also, the author is trying to convince you of something which means the article must be biased in some way.
