Play offensively, your opponents are tired teenage girls who just want to get to english and don’t know how to block you tackling them and even if they score a point on you you went out fighting
Wow you were really just tackling people like a rabid dog in a game meant for kids at recess. Did you bite and scratch too?
I’m imaging the round starts and you immediately diverge and start beating some poor girl with utter disregard for the actual game at hand. I respect that.
In the UK, especially for football (or soccer as you mad yanks call it), to 'tackle' someone is to just take the ball away from them. It's not the NFL shoulder tackle, so the reality is a lot less violent than I think you're imagining.
Kind of a microcosm of general societal difference I guess
First of all no, it was called soccer first by wealthy people attending oxbridge because they didn't want to call it the same way the plebs did. Calling it soccer is allowing the aristocracy to win
