Pourquoi est-ce masculine ?

Fútbol is masculine. While it does derive from the English word "football" borrowed into Spanish in the late 19th century, the primary reason for its masculine gender is that it ends in a consonant (-l), and in Spanish, nouns ending in consonants are typically masculine by default. This rule applies consistently to most consonant-final borrowings in Spanish.
