velocity = distance traveled in a certain direction / time

I like playing soccer because it give me a sense of grasp over space and time.

Usable spaces continuously appear and disappear on the pitch as time passes. The size and location of the space are affected by the relative locations and movement of the players. The movement is the direction and speed (velocity) of the players. The options are almost unlimited, but the size, location, and the predicted duration of certain spaces limits the options significantly. The technique of the receiving player also limits the options especially on the choice of routes the ball must travel to the space and the size of space the player requires. The subsequent analysis of the location, size, and duration of the spaces along with the possible routes to the next space must be done from the new location of the ball. Ideally, the analysis will be done before the pass is made to the space with intended benefits and predicted consequences.

I think some people focus too much on the players and the ball. But at the same time I'm bad at marking the opponent players because I sometimes only look at the spaces.
