Rules Of The Game At one point during a soccer game, the coach said to one of his young players, "Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is?" The little boy nodded in the affirmative. "Do you understand that what matters is how we play together as a team?" The little boy nodded yes. "So," the coach continued, "when offsides is called, or a handball is not called, you don't argue or curse or attack the referee. Do you understand all that?" Again the little boy nodded. "Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain it to your mother."

"Ronaldo is always very close to being either onside or offside."

"We were a little bit outnumbered there, it was two against two."

"If England are going to win this match, they're going to have to score a goal."

"What will you do when you leave soccer, Jack... will you stay in soccer?"

"I've got a gut feeling in my stomach..."

"I would not say he is the best left-winger in the Premiership, but there are none better."

"An inch or two either side of the post and that would have been a goal."

"Both sides have scored a couple of goals, and both sides have conceded a couple of goals."

"And we all know that in football if you stand still you go backwards..."

"That's twice now he has got between himself and the goal."

"If history is going to repeat itself I should think we can expect the same thing again."

"He's very fast and if he gets a yard ahead of himself nobody will catch him.
