A - Z Soccer terms

votes

I love to watch soccer and Spanish commentators convey the emotion of the game very well. The downside is that I hear a lot of terms that I don't get. Let's expand and share knowledge by engaging in a good-old A-Z game!


Provide both the English and Spanish versions of the word.

fuera de juego = offside

A player is in an offside position if he is closer to the opponent's goal line than both the ball and the second-to-last defender (which is usually the last outfield player), but only if the player is on his opponent's half of the pitch.
