Absolutely. Keepers are field players, except they can use their hands in their own penalty area. That's the only difference.

Note: In rare instances where things are "desperate" and there is little time left in the match, the keeper of the trailing team has been seen coming up to play with all his teammates in and around the opponent's penalty area in an attempt to get a late goal. It's unusual, and a risky bid - for obvious reasons. An "open" goal is a good target.

Angles in soccer?

Not sure exactly what you mean...but I guess you could say there are angles in soccer. When your teammate has the ball you have to angle yourself so they have a clear passing lane without a defender being in the way. Also the goalkeeper needs to know angles so they can properly place themselves so they are covering as much of the goal from the forward/striker as possible. They need to make scoring as hard as possible for the opposite team so therefore they want to cut down the angle between the player and the goalkeeper. Hope this helps! :)


What is the probability a captain and a goalkeeper will be among 5 players selected from eleven?

It is possible for the captain and the goalkeeper to be the same person. This changes the probability very significantly. There is nothing in the question to indicated that this is or is not the case.


What math skills are used in soccer?

In real life soccer, at the fast pace, only one thing is used. Its estimating. However, speed and velocity can be considered, like how much force a goalkeeper should exert to get the ball away, the angle of the shot to determine the rebound, all these are demonstrated in soccer. The curve can also be calculated using math, at a higher level, if need be. Even an inch perfect cross is not spot on, so the most powerful tool is estimating. Whats written above is true, but real math IS used in soccer. You need to know your angles (shooting location), the goalie has to use probability, etc. There's a lot. Really . none of its true hon. you dont have to do math and you dont need to no what do your math means really all it means is dont stand around not doing anything you have to get your feet moving and get ready for the ball to come to you and then you strick and that easy its your ball.


What is the number of hexagons and polygons on an official soccer ball?

A hexagon is itself a polygon so it makes little sense to ask about hexagons and polygons. In any case, there were no polygons in the official soccer ball at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. The ball was the Adidas Brazuca and it was made from six rounded cross-like shapes.
