A run describes a player's planned or spontaneous movement on the pitch without the ball, to achieve a specific tactical objective, such as creating space or getting open.
Why are runs important?
Runs are the foundation of structured attacking and defensive play. They allow teams to create numerical advantages, disorganize opposing defenses, and generate scoring opportunities. Effective runs without the ball are often more crucial for success than simply controlling the ball, as they significantly influence the game's dynamics and space.
