Forward or Defender: Which Soccer Position Contributes More to a Win?
Introduction
Essential Info
Every player contributes to the overall result—even those players sitting on the substitute bench can contribute to the general winning spirit of their team. Yet, despite the undoubted fact that soccer is a team game, there has consistently been the argument as to who contributes more to a win, and thus, which role is to be considered more valuable: is it the defender or the forward players?
Thesis
I believe it is incorrect to
consider choosing between these two positions.
Background
Soccer is a fascinating sport for a myriad reasons: it has changing speeds, dynamics in the variety of player positions, and a hint of unpredictability where a twist of fate can turn the game around.
Paragraph 1
Topic Sentence
Forwards are the most widely recognized, that even non-fans can identify them by face and name.
Paragraph 2
Topic Sentence
It is the defenders who do the job of winning the ball for their team and sending it across to their forwards.
Paragraph 3
Topic sentence
Being a successful defender calls for a consistent, reliable, and sound performance; on the other hand, being a forward is about readiness to react in an instant, having an awareness of the play of the ball without turning around—and of course, a brave heart and a firm kick to strike for your team.
Conclusion
Key Sentence
We cannot truly say which position is more valuable: whether it is the defender or the striker, since they are both irreplaceable to the team and could not work effectively without each other.
