Who is a "central defensive midfielder"?
A central defensive midfielder is a player in soccer who plays in the middle of the field, just in front of the defenders. Their main job is to protect their team’s defense by breaking up the opposing team’s attacks and regaining possession of the ball. They often make tackles, intercept passes, and disrupt the other team’s play. Central defensive midfielders also help move the ball forward to start their team’s attacks and keep possession. Their role is crucial in maintaining the team’s defensive shape and supporting both the defense and the offense.
