A blindside run is a move made by an attacker that a defender doesn’t see because he is busy watching the ball.
A blindside run is a move made by an attacker that a defender doesn’t see because he is busy watching the ball.
To make a blindside run, an attacker positions himself on the shoulder of the defender so that the defender cannot see both him and the ball at the same time – hence the attacker is on the defender’s ”blindside”.
When doing this, the attacker can make his move quickly and arrive in space to receive the ball.
