Defender is a position but defending is the concept of play

At first glance, defending is not very attractive topic for young players because they think that you are a good player only if you score a goal. But, is it actually the truth?

We are trying to inspire all player of the importance of defending. A defender is a position, but defending is the concept of play. At some point, every player  needs to win the ball. What is he then? You cannot let the opponent pass you without any effort. So today we practiced main principles such as reaction speed, speed of effort, and timing of tackling. We know that a successful tackle can be done if all steps are done at the right moment. The best way to practice these crucial moments of the game is if it is put in a practice that reflects a real situation against the opponent. Correction and teaching was in place to maximize the effort.

Education continued with analyzing the video of some of the best defenders in the world. Like we said before, everyone defends but on a different level.
