The next set of players are identified as defense, and usually there are four defense on the field. They are positioned in front of the goalkeeper, and its main goal is to defend the goalkeeper from facing the opposite striker/ forward player from scoring. In front of the defense players, comes the midfielder , and usually there are 4 midfielders. The midfielders role is probably the most difficult role from all. Their job is to protect the whole teammate. They have to help out the defense, the striker players, and if they can reach they can also help out the goalkeeper. Its is the most difficult role because they are constantly running, passing the ball from one player to another, and most important is to score no matter what. Ahead of the midfielder are the striker/forward players. Their role is to score goals since they are close to the opposite team net, and usually there are 2 strikers.. The striker/forward player has 60% chance of scoring, Midfielder 30, Defense 9%, and Goalkeeper 1%.

It's called soccer because a player uses his feet to pass around the ball, performed tricks, and most importantly score goals for your teammates. Soccer games start off with 11 players in both teams, and it is a 90 minute game with extra time if needed due to intervene for various reasons such as wasting time, injuries, or fight among each others.
