Hello everyone!
So last week the LGB Express sports section sent out a small football quiz. Considering the issue we had with sending it out, I want to thank you guys for the great response.
Here are the official results:
- As expected, 91% of the respondents currently play football.
- Most respondents watched 1-2 games a week; however, 26% actually watch 5 games or more a week. 450 minutes!
- The most popular league in our school is La Liga followed by the Premier League. One respondent told me that their favourite league was the NFL, so there’s that.
- LGB’s favourite club is Barcelona (28%) followed by Real Madrid (13%) and in joint third are Chelsea and Manchester United. No surprises there. Shoutout to whoever answered “yes”.
The respondents predicted these winners for the big five and Champions League this season:
- La Liga: Barcelona
- Bundesliga: Bayern
- Serie A: Juventus
- Ligue 1: PSG
- EPL: Manchester City
- Champions League: Barcelona or Real Madrid (Tied on votes)
Super original predictions guys…
- Our favourite player, as a school, is Messi; however honorable mentions go to Scholes, Robben, Ronaldo, Hazard, and Iniesta.
- So it was unsurprising that he overwhelmingly won the Messi v. Ronaldo debate: almost 70% of respondents prefer him to Ronaldo!
(If we had our own Ballon d’Or it would definitely go to him.)
Overall I thought this survey was successful and fun to make. Send us feedback! If you guys enjoyed this I’ll do it for other sports.
