FIFA World Cup 2006

There are Chinese television stations that you can stream in with special peer-to-peer applications. That website lists the matches, what channels they are one, and what programs to use. It's all somewhat convoluted to get working, but they have forums to explain it all. I watch most of the Champions League games with it. The feed is pretty decent, but you have to deal with Chinese commentary sometimes. I'm also unsure about the legality of it. But hey, like the link says... free football!

So, if I pull a fast move on my defender and get a breakaway past him, and my teammate (who was behind me when I beat the defender) breaks with me, I can't pass to him?

Illustration:
X & Y are teammates, D is the last (non-goalie) defender, G is the goalie.  X has the ball at all times.

Scene 1:

Code:

               G


                D
             X     

                               Y

Scene 2:
D on his ass after fancy move:

Code:

         G

     X

    D                        Y

Scene 3, Y joins the fray, goalie goes to block X's shooting lane:

Code:

          G

         X                  Y

              D

Can X pass to Y in scene 3?

[Righ]

Only if Y is behind X, not level or forward. Though if the ref is unsighted... anything goes. :)

[El Gallo]

Ah, OK.  I was concerned that I couldn't pass to Y at all because there was only 1 defender between he and the net.  Thanks.

More frequently it occurs thus:

Code:

                  G




                             Y

                D



             X

X passes to Y. Y is offside.
