One-On-One

Narrowing the angle is most important when you are faced with a one on one situation.  Try to stay on your feet as long as possible and make the attacker take the decision.

If he shoots, try and get close enough to block the ball. If he tries to go round you, force him as wide as you can before spreading yourself and attacking the ball with your hands.
Be careful, this is where penalties are conceded.
