I play central defender in the football team of our college. Let's talk about how to play a good central defender.

I am also the central defender of amateur football team, with a height of 170CM and a weight of 74KG. I think it's okay to mention it.

1. Warm-up must be done well, especially pay attention to the movements at the beginning of 10 minute. At this time, the body will sometimes be stiff, so it is better to be steady.

2. When defending, pay attention to the opponent's action of taking the ball. If he calmly takes the ball near the midfield, watch him hit the ball behind you. If he doesn't take the ball calmly, you should pay attention to his movements, predict where the ball will go, and properly seal off the opposing striker and his passing route.

3. If the opponent throws off the full-back, if the position after the breakthrough is close to the sideline of the small restricted area, he should make up the position quickly and pay attention to blocking the angle between him and the goal. If he wants to make a move, you must lift your leg to block the interference, preferably with a tackle. Don't be afraid of his fake action to buckle you. After the spike, there is no shooting power.

4. When defending, you should know that there are several opponents and your defenders behind you, and whether there are any omissions. You should remind your full-back or midfielder to imagine their approximate running route and position even if you don't look at the opposing striker behind you, so it's easy to get stuck and handle the ball. This is the so-called sense of position and consciousness.

4, don't always follow the opponent's striker, but hold the position, because the striker can't catch the ball in the same place, but constantly change his position.

5. Corner kick defense, two people are placed on both sides of the post, one is placed in the front point, the heavy weight is placed between the penalty point and the goal and the back point, and the striker stays in the frontcourt. Everyone else should come back and defend. You should keep an eye on the opponent's best header and stick it on him. If he jumps, even if he can't reach the ball, you should jump with him.

6. When defending, if the opponent attacks from the left, ask your right-back to help you near the middle, not too far from the middle.

7. The opponent's quick counterattack defense is mainly based on destruction. The full-back defense should not be too hard, try to delay the time and wait for reinforcements.

8. Prevent long-distance shooting in the restricted area. Don't give the space between the shooter and the goal unimpeded. You'd better keep this straight line.

9. The opposing striker and center made a positive breakthrough. Don't stretch your feet easily when grabbing the ball, don't lose your center of gravity easily, look for opportunities while retreating, defend sideways, and be ready to turn around and start at any time, but you can't always retreat.

10, pay high attention, react quickly, and accurately judge the first landing point of the ball.

That's all I can think of now.
