Re: Defensive Strategy - cornering opponents ball

Of course, this is subjective to being in the right place at the right time.
I did mention pushing, but yes it all depends, especially when you consider that they will be getting four points on the way around and the opponent can come around in about 8 seconds only to pick up the ball.
