Football is a complex kinesiological activity that belongs to the group of polystructural acyclic movements. Specific motor movements of acceleration and stopping, moving forward, backward and sideways, jumps and landings and contacts with other players predominate, for these reasons we have an increased risk of injury. As the first and general division will go according to the localization of the injury. As far as the joints of top football players are concerned, the most risky and most suitable for injuries are: knee, ankle, spine, especially the lumbar and cervical spine. There are two basic types of injury, acute traumatic injury and chronic injury or overexertion. Under acute injuries are fractures, sprains, cracks, bruises, sprains and dislocations, while chronic injuries are those that occur after some time of engaging in an activity. The knee next to the thigh muscles occupy the largest percentage of total injuries in football, and are among the most risky injuries due to the severity of the injuries themselves. The knee injuries we will talk about are the jumping knee as the only strain injury, then the meniscus injuries and the four main ligaments. This is where we come to prevention, as a set of measures that we try to preserve the health of athletes. The best form of prevention is warming up before every workout and game. Then proper body posture and proper movement patterns. Finally, training, muscular endurance training, strength training and proprioception training.
