width Explanation: I don't know whether this is what you need, but this is what "amplitud" means in Spanish in relation to football: width, as opposed to "profundidad": depth. Here's a previous Spanish-English question on these two terms: https://esl.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/sports_fitness... Here's an explanation of width from Wikipedia: "Width and depth are both principles of offense and defence as follows: Width in attack- the attacker tries to divide the defence by spreading strike points across a broad front, rather than attempting to force advances through narrow channels. This may involve play from the wings, or rapidly shifting into open lanes/open space when approaching the goal. Mainly using wingers, often gaps are made between defenders using the width. These gaps can be used to feed the ball to strikers. Width in defence- the defender counters, trying to contract and deny width. Attackers are "shepherded" or channeled into narrower or more crowded avenues of approach" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_football_tactics_a... Here's the abstract of an article on the subject ("Defensive use of the interaction space in soccer") in Spanish and English: https://recyt.fecyt.es//index.php/RICYDE/article/view/21089 But the rest of the English is pretty odd. I don't know what "through the overload" is supposed to mean. |

Reference: Overload Reference information: is a thing in football. You create an overload when you engineer play so that you have an extra man in a 1v1 or 2v2 situation. Confusingly, perhaps, in terms of this question, a well-timed overlap can create an overload. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2017-10-19 11:17:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://youtu.be/6kH9DY3v5wg -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2017-10-19 17:29:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Er, it's not an answer but a reference to a problematic term in your context that was discussed in Neil's and Charles' answers. I must say I find your response ignorant and rude. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2017-10-19 17:32:17 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- They were discussing what overload meant and whether it might be overlap. How much do you know about football? -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2017-10-19 17:38:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Note that I wasn't claiming 'overload' was the right word here, merely pointing out that it is an accepted football term. I was *trying to help*. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 hrs (2017-10-19 17:42:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It related to the word 'overload'. How was that not clear? If it was my suggestion for 'amplitud', I would have posted it as an answer. https://youtu.be/6kH9DY3v5wg |
