Playing
soccer is not just about running, kicking and striking a goal. It’s
also about defensive play. Without effective defense, other skills
become useless. This is why soccer
players
consider good defensive play as a prerequisite to win a match.
If
you’re a defender, make sure you observe the opponent carefully
before you make a move; and do not rush forward. One basic technique
is to keep your distance from the opponent. And most importantly,
stay calm and try to predict the opponent’s move so you can combat
it effectively. Never underestimate your opponent. Remember, if
you’re a good defender, you can help your team win the match.
