What does the term in soccer, “goal side inside” mean?
I just joined a competetive soccer team and in the games when I’m defending, everyone is screaming at me, “goal side inside! goal side inside!” and i have no idea what the hell they’re talking about hahaha. thanks (:

I believe they were asking you to defend at either end of the goal post. Two players usually guard the goal post during corner kicks.

When I used to play it basically ment get infront of a opposition player this is goal side so you would get the ball first.

The term “goal side” means that you are to position yourself between the attacking player and your goal. If you are goal side of the attacking player you are in a position to stop him from taking a shot.
