The Beautiful Game
The Beautiful Game ((ポルトガル語:o jogo bonito)) is a nickname for association football, first said by the Brazilian footballer Pelé, although football commentator Stuart Hall is the only individual to have claimed to have coined "The Beautiful Game". In his youth, Hall admired Peter Doherty when he went to see Manchester City play at Maine Road and used the term "The Beautiful Game" to describe Doherty's style when playing. Consequently, he used the term "The Beautiful Game" in his commentary career later on in life which popularised the phrase.
==Etymology==
The exact origins of the term are disputed. The origin has been attributed to Brazilian footballer Waldyr Pereira (Didi), and the presenter Stuart Hall claimed to have originated it in 1958.〔〔Hall, S; Mayo, S: ''The Daily Mayo'', 6 May 2009, BBC Radio 5 Live〕 The English author and football fanatic H. E. Bates used the term earlier, including in a 1952 newspaper piece extolling the virtues of the game entitled "Brains in the Feet".
Earlier writers used the term in 1848 to describe the game of ''baaga'adowe'', a forerunner of lacrosse as played by Ojibwe at Vauxhall Gardens in London, and to tennis in 1890.
