    While my team mate overlaps me, I would want to move the ball in what direction?

    • Towards my team mate

    • Forwards, but in the same direction as my team mate

    • Forwards, but in the opposite direction to my team mate

    Correct Answer
    A. Forwards, but in the opposite direction to my team mate
    Explanation
    When the team mate overlaps, it means that they are moving forward in the same direction as the ball. In order to create space and maintain the team's attacking momentum, the player should move the ball forward as well. However, since the team mate is already moving in the same direction, the player should move the ball forwards but in the opposite direction to their team mate. This will help to create separation between the two players and provide more options for the team's attack.
