Disagree pretty heartily there. Soccer fans cheer good tackles, good runs, their team being awarded free kicks, corners, great set up pay, their team on the break, etc. It's not all the simple goal/no goal. Maybe Americans really need that minute or two pause in the action.
And football fans ooh and ahh jukes, tackles, and broken tackles.. Corner and free kicks are the only good example you used. Of course they cheer stuff. But every things constantly resetting. You can say its not just goal or no goal, but with the exception of the rare corner or free kicks, it is.

Yea man totally. You've changed my mind and you're obviously super knowledgeable about soccer.

Pretty much sounds like soccer is too smart of a sport for you. I mean, the intelligent use of "clever", spectators cheering "non-resetting accomplishments", fans patiently waiting for something greater than a base hit. Sounds like your mind just can't handle it, which is cool. On the bright side, it sounds like you've completely found something on your level with football and baseball, so that's great, man.
No worries
