10 Reasons why soccer is sexier than football.
And why Ramos is hotter than Beckham.

REIGN IN SPAIN – Not only have Fernando Torres and Sergio Ramos proven that they’re one of the best soccer players in the world, they’re also sexy as hell. Here’s our countdown to the 10 reasons why we’d rather watch soccer than football. Enjoy.

REASON 10. — THE BLATANT LEG FONDLING:
Soccer players are all about the boy/boy touching. And there’s no shame. We love it. Here Iker Casillas gets a nice grope from his mates. While football players may enjoy a nice ass tap every so often, here we have a full on inner thigh fondling. Hot!

REASON 9. — THE STRADDLING:

REASON 8. — GET ON YOUR KNEES BITCH:
Soccer players can’t resist dropping to their knees every time they score a goal. Just like gay guys right? Except usually the knee dropping happens before the scoring. (Photo MARTIN MEISSNER/AP)

REASON 7. — THE HEAD BUTTING:
Spain’s David Silva butts heads with Germany’s Lukas Podolski. Soccer players love to use their head. Whether it’s to knock out a goal or prove their manhoods on the field, the head is much more important than the…you know.

REASON 6. — THE HAIR:
What is it about Soccer players and those long luscious locks? I don’t have a specific answer, but I do enjoy the Samson allusions.

REASON 5. — THE BLOODINESS:
I’ve never really been into S&M, but unlike football in futbol there’s no helmet to protect you. Which is one the one hand: hot. And on the other hand: really hot.

REASON 4. — THE GROIN GRABBING:
I’m not sure what Fernando is doing to the German player in this photo, but it’s totally turning me on.

REASON 3. — THE ORAL FIXATIONS:
Soccer men just love to put their mouths on everything. Above Fernando Torres sucks his thumb — totally adorable. Above him another player bites down on his medal.

REASON 2. — THE GAMS:
Oh those wonderful soccer legs. They’re legendary. And it helps that player wear these figure hugging shorts. Check out those thighs. Oh that I were the neon green AstroTurf beneath his shorts.

REASON 1. — SERGIO RAMOS:
Need I say more. The hair. The body. The kissable lips. Sigh. Scroll down for a little happy ending fun.
