Here we go, lets ease into it nice and slow. Two nets, two teams and one ball. Put the ball in the other teams net. Simple enough? Don't worry lesson isn't done yet, just want you to get the idea in your mind that soccer is quite a simple game. It's basically like hockey. Just without the ice, equipment, skates, boards oh and the rumble in the Bronx that tends to break out once in a while, great comparison, actually it is if you strip each game down to it's raw basics, two teams each defending their net.
Play it by the numbers
