What's up, naturals it's go natural english here with another english lesson for you i am pumped
Today, because we're?
Gonna, talk about one of my favorite things in the world soccer or as the rest of the world knows
That football yes because the world cup is coming up this is very
Important for us to go over?
soccer
Vocabulary in english as, well as some conversational questions because this is an
awesome
Time to watch soccer and to talk with other people
To, use your english to talk to people from all over the world, who, also love the world cup
And who love this sport so one first
Little tiny difference between north american english and british english is whether you call this sport soccer as i do because i am?
From the united states or if you call it football like most of the rest of the world
Also a little difference is whether you talk about games or?
Matches are you, gonna watch the game
You're, gonna watch the match it's the same thing but north americans tend to say
Game most often now one thing you may not know
About me is i used to play soccer for many years and i also?
Coached a woman's soccer team actually a?
High, school, women's soccer teams so i love soccer try, my favorite sport and i don't have?
That much time to play anymore but i do love it and when i do have time to play i usually play!
Defense usually on the right side that's my spot so
We have the positions first of all when we're talking about vocabulary for soccer the
Defense is well defending
Against the other team they're in the back right in front of the goalie or the
Goalkeeper a very important position i was always too scared to be goalkeeper because i just yeah i didn't
Want to have that ball flying at me full speed, oh my, gosh, and i'm not the great of catching it better with
My feet so anyway i was a defender you
Also, have the midfield in middle of the field and the midfielders will defend he'll
Also sometimes go up with the forwards to help get a goal and the you have the forwards as, well and their
Main job is to
Score goals or like when i watch soccer with my roommates who are from mexico as
They, say on those games go
oh
ball
Yeah, i think it's hilarious, okay?
So that is also one difference between american soccer games and the rest of the world when you have football games
Is will just be like go
Anywhere so sometimes we change the way that, we call the
Defense in the field and forwards some people will say fullback
Halfback, and striker instead of defense midfield and forward those are the same things, okay?
let's talk
about actions during the game so to dribble the ball same as in
Basketball is when you're running up the field with the ball you know
Little by little and using different parts of your, books off sides is a
Violation when an offensive player is passed the ball, when there are no defensive players between
That offensive player and the goal so you
Don't want to be offsides if you're on the
Offense if you're a forward you don't want to be offsides because then other team is awarded an indirect kick out of
Bounds or you might here i would've a this is when the ball
goes outside the boundaries of the field of the lines a
Quarter kick is a kick from the corner of the field, when the ball goes out of bounds last touched, by a
defensive player so the
Offensive team is gonna be kicking it from the corner a
Goal kick is when the goalie gets to kick the ball because it went out of bounds and it was last touched
By an offensive player a
Throw-in, is when play is restarted after ball goes out of bounds and the team that throws it in is the
Opposite team that made the ball go out of bounds shin guards are required for players to wear to protect
Their legs the part of the leg between the ankle, and the knee kickoff, is the way of starting or restarting the game at
The beginning of the game halftime after goals been scored or if there's extra time so if a team commits a
violation
and the other team
Would either get a direct or an indirect kick at that time a
Direct kick could be directly kicked into the goal whereas an indirect kick needs to be touched
By, another player before a goal is scored, we have red cards and yellow. Cards yellow cards are for
unsportsmanlike behavior
whereas red cards are for serious violations or violent behavior a penalty kick is
awarded to the opposing team
Inside the penalty area
12 yards in front of the goal so if other team commits an offense then the opposing team
Might get a penalty kick a header is when you use your head to head the ball to
Advance or deflect the ball
Tackling is an attempt successful or not to take the ball, away from another player
Using your feet to pass the ball is pretty basic
But to use your foot to send the ball to advance it to another
Teammate fifa is the governing international
body of
soccer and they
Established the world cup. A fake is to deceive another player or try to deceive them
By, moving this, way but then actually passing the ball that way a foul as a violation of the rules rewarded with a free
Kick and a free kick is a kick awarded to a. Player, who received
A file from the opposing team a shot is an attempt to get a
Goal, you could take a shot with your foot or with your head obviously not with
Your hands because that would be a hand ball which is not allowed in soccer and the world cup is an
International event held, by fifa every four years between the qualifying
32 countries and it is the most watched sporting events in the world
