In 1998, it was the often-copied step-over move. And in 2002, teams began to use the jumping wall.
Today, the newest strategic play emerged from Germany. Pretty inventive, I thought. On a late free kick from about 30-35 yards, the German player was poised to shoot, but then held up at the last minute as if to start again. But just as he began to wind up again, a second player came storming through to take the shot instead. It faked the camera man, some fans, and perhaps even the keeper.
I wonder if we'll see that in the VMSL this year.
