Summary/Abstract: Writing about football fan and a football computer game player, Miroslaw Filiciak examines the impact of audio-visual media on the rules of world football. He observes not only the development of football computer games, but also their importance for football fans. It becomes a more common custom to connect viewing transmission of a match with playing football games on playstation. They seem to be not only a kind of leisure time, but also – a way of reacting the stress aftera failures of a favorite team. The author notes, gradual blurring the boundaries between the real world of football field and virtual space of pixel footballers.
