"Hi, My Name is Christopher Howell with Expert Village. Today I am going to talk to you today about how to watch soccer and its basics. If you get into more advanced moves, which would be something like a turn around. You got your defender right in front of you well since your defender is in right here and I do not want the defender to have the ball, well actually I'll come right here and I'll step in front of the ball which puts my back in front of the defender. Once my back is facing the defender I'll come around to his side and I'll actually just go right around him which is a pretty advanced move. Try to stick to the basics. I'm going to demonstrate this move one time. I got my defender and I am looking straight at him. I'll come and I'm dribbling the ball. I'll step in front of the defender, I'll pull the ball to my side, and I'll go right around the defender. Another situation like I covered a little bit before but not really was out of bounds. The ball goes out of bounds well then the line official will say you know whose ball it is. Sometimes if he can't really see it he'll ask the other line official if he saw who kicked it out or the main ref. Sometime they are going to have a little bit of conflict but for the most part line officials are going to see what happened with the ball and who kicked it out and he's going to tell, wave his flag and say it's this team's ball."
