Football

Some people think football is a matter of life and death.

  • Bill Shankly

Hello, my name is Shriyans Mohapatra and today I am going to be telling you about the different positions of each member of a team and how do they collaborate on the field.

But what is Football?

football or soccer is a team sport played with a spherical ball between two teams of 11 players. It is played by approximately 250 million players in over 200 countries and dependencies, making it the world's most popular sport.

So, let us get started!

Firstly, let us talk about the goalkeeper(gk).

The goalkeeper, often shortened to keeper or goalie, is one of the major positions of association football. It is the most specialised position in the sport. The goalkeeper's primary role is to prevent the opposing team from scoring.

Now let us talk about the defender

In the sport of association football, a defender is an outfield player whose primary roles are to stop attacks during the game and prevent the opposing team from scoring goals.

Centre backs are usually in pairs, with 2 full backs to their left and right, but can come in threes with no full-backs.

There are four types of defenders: centre-back, sweeper, full-back, and wing-back. The centre-back and full-back positions are essential in most modern formations. The sweeper and wing-back roles are more specialized for certain formations.

Is not all these info interesting?

So, let's continue!

Midfielder

Midfielders are generally positioned on the field between their team's defenders and forwards. Some midfielders play a disciplined defensive role, breaking up attacks, and are otherwise known as defensive midfielders. Others blur the boundaries, being more mobile and efficient in passing they are commonly referred to as deep-lying midfielders, play-makers, box-to-box, or holding midfielders. The number of midfielders on a team and their assigned roles depends on the team's formation; the collective group of these players on the field is sometimes referred to as the midfield.

Attacker

Forwards are the players on an associationfootball team who play nearest to the opposing team's goal, and are therefore most responsible for scoring goals.

Their advanced position and limited defensive responsibilities mean forwards normally score more goals on behalf of their team than other players.

Modern teamformations generallyinclude one to three forwards; for example, the common 4–2–3–1 formation includes one forward. Unconventional formations may include more than three forwards or none.

Those Were The Days ... Author : SHRIYANS CHANDAN MOHAPATRA

  Those Were The Days ... Author : SHRIYANS CHANDAN MOHAPATRA Do you wish you could return to moments from your past? Yes, I wish I could return memories from your past as those were the days. Many people say that growing up is the best part of life. But I disagree. Growing up means a smaller margin for errors, a necessity for seriousness and I just dislike all of those. The only positive about growing up Is total freedom. No one to stop from chasing your dreams except you yourself. But then you need to mature and grow responsible, along with still obeying everyone; that is an expectation that others have of you. Meanwhile when you are a child; a chick whose egg has just cracked, your mistakes are turned into a laughingstock and your naughtiness are converted into a chance to snuggle into your mother’s safe hands. I tell you those were the days. I sometimes feel as if I would give everything I have, even if it means my life to go back in time. Sometimes I feel if only everyone...

The Lonely Old Lady Author : RIYAA JOSHI

  The Lonely Old Lady Author : RIYAA JOSHI "It started a few years ago. I was thirsty for blood. I had developed a taste for human meat and skin. My first victim, Officer Black, was my gardener. One fine day, he came at sharp 6 in the morning, as always, and watered my precious garden generously. At 7, he came in, and requested me to give him a glass of water. I went into the kitchen, alright, but a glass of water wasn't the only thing I took. As Frank the gardener gulped down his glass, my hand rose behind him and a long, sharp knife came into view. I plunged the knife straight through the hem of his shirt and inside his hot and sweaty back as a fountain of blood splashed my pretty pink dress. I couldn't help it, Officer. You see, I am an old lady. I get lonely sitting alone in the small of these four walls. My cannibalism always seems to overwhelm me. My second victim, was old Mrs. Thomas from across the street. Poor lady, I tell you Officer Black. Always cares for me, y...
