What is the system of play in football? A plan known as a system of play in football determines the way players act toward each other together or individually when they are on the field. This system involves formation and guidelines.to carry out the proper functions in attacking and defending

Three examples of a system of play There are four systems of play in football; however here are three top systems of play; 1. The 4-3-3 System

this formation includes four players in defence, three midfielders and three attackers. 2. The 4-4-2 system

this formation includes four players in defense four midfield players and two attackers.

3. The 3-5-2 system 7

this formation includes three players in defense five midfielders two attackers and a goalkeeper.

Officials in a game of football The referee- the referee is very important in a game of football. He is the only one who carries a whistle and uses it to signal the starting and stopping of a game. He has the right to award a free kick a penalty kick, a yellow card or a red card. The linesmen- in football there are two lines men who patrol the length of the touch line between the halfway line and one goal line. They both have to carry a brightly-coloured flag to use as a signal. Linesmen will also wave their flags to catch the referee’s attention if they believe they have spotted a foul. Fourth official- The fourth official is positioned on the touchline between the two opposing benches. He has to keep track of all stops during the game. During half time he has to inform the players how much time will be added on to make up for them

Three ways to restart a game Three ways to restart a game are as follows 1. A direct free kick- this is one of the ways you can restart a game. This usually comes after a foul. A direct free kick may be scored against the other side without the ball have to be touched by another player 2. An indirect free kick –this is another way you can restart the game. Unlike a direct free kick, a goal may not be scored directly from the kick 3. Corner kick- this is yet another way to restart a game. This happens when the whole ball passes over the goal line
