There are two basic aspects of soccer, technical and tactical.
Technique is simply
technical ability, individual skill.
Simply put, the following are techniques: 1st touch, dribbling, trapping,
heading, passing, etc...
Technical is the ability to perform certain actions (trapping, passing,
heading, shooting, dribbling, etc...)
Tactical is the "field awareness" if you will. The vision and foresight
to play the game.
Tactics involve off-the-ball movements, defensive posture/pressure, support,
balance, and even formations fall in this category.
