What is a "sideways pass"?
A sideways pass in soccer is a pass made across the field, typically from one player to a teammate who is positioned to the left or right of them. This pass is used to maintain possession of the ball, shift the play, or create space by moving the ball from one side of the field to the other. Sideways passes are often short and controlled, aiming to avoid interception and keep the flow of the game steady. They help keep the ball moving and can open up new options for attacking or defending.
Example
The team prefers sideways passes to control the tempo of the game.
She intercepted the sideways pass and launched a counterattack.
He opted for a sideways pass instead of risking a long ball.
