Why score from the near end if you can do it from the middle?
Get rid of the "middle man" and score.

Defense is being highly underestimated.
I played soccer for years. Its very different when its by yourself vs. an opposing team.

I agree with you entirely, especially since I play as a striker or a sweeper in soccer... though I think good defensive teams will have a very tough time getting recognized. My girlfriend put it perfectly: "it's not much fun watching you play when you play defense, because it only gets exciting if you screw up".

Our team is going to be more defensively minded I think, and I will be really disappointed if we get written off because we weren't as noticeable as a high-scoring team.
