3🔍 Why it matters — what to watch for
A humble restart becomes, with the right thrower, a scoring chance like a corner. Once a trademark of Japanese high-school football, now used by Premier League heavyweights — aiming for a scramble and second balls in front of goal.
On the call you'll hear“Here comes the long throw! The defence has to be ready for this!”
