These days I attended futsal matches and I realized that it is an evolution of the traditional football from which it differs very significantly. Of course it is played with a ball, there is a goalkeeper and win the team that makes more goals but in other respects is another sport. Here in what in my opinion is different:
- during a time players can alternate every 3/4 minutes
- in the last two minutes the team can make more goals and overturn the result
- the error of a player can be fatal and determine one goal
- it is a game of high intensity, with continuous shots that reduce mental and physical energies of the players
- reaction times and decision must be very fast
- each player must always be ready to defend and attack
- the expulsion of a player determines a significant advantage to the opposing team
- it is required a constant and high level of coordination and cooperation
- the team have to play with high-intensity until the last second
- it requires a continuous emotional control over the harmful moods
