The present study investigates the conceptual metaphors in the written discourse of football, in particular, within the relatively new genre of Live Text Commentary. The study falls into two parts: a theoretical part, and a practical one. The theoretical part introduces football commentary by presenting its different levels, and types. In addition, a bintroduction for conceptual metaphor is presented. The practical part covers the research methodology where the live text commentaries transcripts are examined manually to identify the conceptual metaphors they contain. The study ends up with the conclusion that football LTCs are perceived in terms of many source domains; however, the domain of conflict/war is pervasive.
