10. Managing Emotions Football is a hard, fast game where emotions can run high. Managing Emotions in Football is important because it allows you to keep control of your feelings in demanding situations. In Football it is important to manage your emotions during the following situations: When the game is close; When my team are behind in the game; When the opposition are putting me under pressure; When I am shooting; During free kicks/penalties; When I disagree with the referee’s decision; When I am fouled by my opponent; When the game is being played in front of an audience; Managing your emotions allows you to focus on your role within the team and work effectively with your teammates. Controlling your emotions and staying calm and focused will allow you to maintain a high level of skill and will have a positive effect on your own and your team’s performance.
