Zero Man Defense Wins Game!
Submitted By: Eddie Holt
There was a soccer match between two under-16 teams in a town in Middle
Tennessee. One team was good, and the other team was miserably pathetic, and
frequently lost matches 10-0. After the half, realizing that his team might
actually come close to winning after being down by only 3 points, the
eager but
inexperienced coach of the worst team in the league tried something
different.
He told every player save the goalie to keep himself on the offensive
half with
hopes that the other team would choke under the pressure of having no
defence
to go up against. Sure enough, when the awestruck team tried to dribble
down
the bare naked half of the field, some idiot would get excited (remember,
they
were 15 year- olds) and make himself offsides, and when the ball got
on the
other half, the ridiculous amount of offence would naturally force
the ball
into the goal. The worst team in the league won their first game
using the ever
popular "remove-your-whole-defense-and-
watch-the-other-team-choke" trick.
