we actually used to do this on my HS team. won the state championship this way. teams shy away from it bc pro soccer is more about "entertainment" than winning.

wouldn't the entire team lined up at the 1 be offsides as well if they ever touched the ball?

i think both teams would prob line up at the other team's 1 making every player simultaneously offsides. Ball would stay at midfield.

goalie one on one?

I guess if you have a lead that would make it impossible for the other team to score. But you could not score yourself again.

Because the other team could just kick it down field and try to outrun your team to the ball.

engrish? what the fck are you saying

you need 2 opponents inline or behind you. so its not entirely in your control to be onside by some trick play like this

have you heard of offside trap? its a very fundamental defensive technique

What do you mean by the "1"? You mean at the opposing team's goal line? The opposing team cannot be offside on it's own half of the field. Offsides only applies when you're on the opposing half of the field.

Ok, then line up at midfield. Like they say above, you couldn't score but they couldn't either. If you get a lead or just need a draw it is CR

lol, no it's not. All of your players are at midfield. Just boot the ball over their heads and you have a quick breakaway.

but at the 50, a team could boot it over the line and if someone who is onsides sprints to get the lob, then it is a fast break.

In fact, anyone who can dribble can do the same if they lob it over the midfield line.

there is no offside if there is no passing

11 players is not enough to block the entire field width

so if they lineup exactly along a line they wont be able to press or defend and a player with good ball control can then just advance past them and now you are fcked

you think that some XO dorks who watch soccer during world cup are genius mofos who have found the secret elixir that billions of ppl playing for decades haven't found?
