Emmm, you need to break apart as below: “ 为看足球,课也不上了。” = “ 为（了）看足球，也不上（课）了。” “为（了）”means “In order to …” here 也 is for emphasis “不上（课）” not go to school/class, here“课” was placed in the front as a subject. “了” is a modal particle. So the second part means: skipped class to watch football.

Hahha it is not“ 为/看/足球课/也不上了“ but “为/看足球/课也不上了“. It means she skipped class in order to watch football match. “上课”means taking classes. Hope you will find this answer helpful～

不上了就是不上课了的意思

@Jia Wang Thanks for the extra examples. They're very helpful!

Hi Emily, you need to break apart the second part like this: 为看足球/课也不上了. Here 为 means "for", indicating an objective. It's the same as 为了. “课也不上了” is a variation from “不上课” (attend class). To emphasize the action, in Chinese we sometimes put the verb at the end of a sentense. The structure 连......都不...... can be translated as “ even + negative meaning of a verb”. Let me give you more examples: 1.为了准备明天的考试，她今晚连觉都不睡了 To prepare for tomorrow's exam, she doesn't even sleep tonight. Here 连觉都不睡了 is a variation from 不睡觉. 2. 为了减肥，她每天连晚饭都不吃了 To loose weight, she even skips everyday's supper. 连晚饭都不吃了 is a variation from 不吃晚饭. So the translation of the second part can be: To watch football, she even skipped class/she didn't even attend class.
