The 4-5-1 Formation in Association Football.

Image
The 4-5-1 Formation The 4-5-1 Formation is sometimes used in the soccer world. It utilises a stronger midfield to help control the central area of the pitch. This is good for holding possession of the ball and winning tight battles that tend to happen in the midfield area. Attack Having only one striker with this tactical play, it can be harder to score goals if not used properly. Midfielders must push forward to assist the lone striker, otherwise, he will just be outnumbered. Its not just about getting men into the box, but about making runs in the right places to open up defence or even make dummy runs to give room for the striker. With this tactical play, you have the same wing options as the 4-4-2 but going wide might not be a good idea with only one striker to aim for. If you do go wide, try to make sure midfielders get themselves into the box for a chance to head on goal. Personally, i think that it also the striker as well as the midfielders to make the 4-

FIFA.Com:Thirty hopefuls begin road to round three.

Thirty hopefuls begin road to round three (FIFA.com) Friday 22 July 2011 Asian minnows rarely take centre stage. However, the continent's second qualifying round for the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil™ provides them with a seldom chance to rub shoulders with the big boys. Fifteen underdogs, including the eight successful sides from the opening round, will challenge higher-ranked rivals over two legs, the first of which will unfold tomorrow, for the right to join Australia, Bahrain, Japan, Korea DPR and Korea Republic in the next phase. Such meetings invariably used to end in one-sided results, with upsets scarce. With the gap between teams in Asia having narrowed significantly in recent years, though, the favourites can take nothing for granted. FIFA.com previews the ensuing action.

Owling Craze! Lol.

Image
Owling is a role playing game and relatively new phenomenon much like the "Planking phenomenon", a trend that is set through popular internet blogs and then taken into the physical world. Like Planking, Owling was created as a joke but is catching on in both urban and suburban settings alike around the United States of America. The act of Owling includes crouching on a random object, preferably highly elevated. Unlike its humerus counterpart Planking, Owling allows the "Owler" to make hooting noises while perched. The goal of this game is to seek attention and a smile, or puzzled face from passing bystanders, while taking in the scenery and enjoying the environment around oneself. Owling can be done in any setting. Just when you thought we as a human race couldn't get any weirder (or more bored, depending on how you look at it) planking has been upstaged by... wait for it... owling. After planking, it's now 'owling' ANI   Jul 16, 2011,
