Friction is a force that pulls backward while it's going forward. What I mean is for example the picture of the car in this photo it's going forward, the ground which is the Friction will be slowing the car down til it makes a full stop. Another good example is a soccer ball you kick it and as you start to notice the ball is slowing down due to the ground slowing it also known as Friction.
