Seeing that the game needs more organization if it were to be played properly, he suggested creating a governing body for soccer in a local newspaper and the idea grew roots.” On 26 October, 1863, his idea was put to action. “Cobb Morley is rightfully considered the father of soccer, but that's not just because he was the one to spark the idea of the Football Association. He also drew up the Laws of the Game, probably the most important document in the history of soccer, since it held all the official rules around which the game would be played. “ Cobb Morley's rules were agreed and accepted by the Football Association on the 8th of December 1863.

8. The Goal Fernando Torres passed to Cesc Fàbregas who passed it to Andrés Iniesta who scored and amazing goal <3 The defense could have spread out in a more effective way to help stop the goal They spread evenly and more effectively and also worked cooperatively than the other team which helped lead to the goal. Not really, there was no movement “off the ball” by other attackers to draw defenders away from the goal scorer. Actually the defense was more but didn’t spread out effectively.
