Soccer Long-Ball Style of Play
(aka Long Game or Direct Attack). A style of offensive play where the objective of the attacking soccer team is to send “long balls” thru or over the defense which they hope their forwards will beat the defenders to. This style keeps pressure on the defense but it is much more effective if the attackers can also use short passes when near the other soccer teams goal as a way to finish the attack. (See “Short Game“, “Over The Top“, & “Direct Attack“).
