The correct answer is option 1) i.e. DBCA.

  • D will be the first sentence of the passage since it is the introductory sentence and introduces the term 'Football' and briefly explains what it consists of.
  • B explains the word 'Football' in brief, so B should follow D.
  • C further explains different types of football in detail, so, C should follow B.
  • A provides a technical or relevant name(football codes) to different types of football mentioned in C, so, A should follow C.

Thus, the correct arrangement is : DBCA.
