Now, I'd rather watch this beauty for 90 minutes than try to watch a soccer game. And, I'm still trying to figure our what the hell is OFFSIDES? Does anybody know? you got 20+ guys running all over the place, kicking each others' shins, and somehow, a ref calls, "OFFSIDES"!
It’s not really hard, when the ball is played there must be at least one defender between the goal and the designated receiver of the pass. That’s so players don’t camp out in front of the goal waiting for a long pass.
Hockey has something similar.
Don’t even waste your time trying to understand that boring sport.
