Question

which position in soccer is responsible for both offense and defense? (1 point) forward midfielder goalie sweeper

Explanation:

In soccer, midfielders play a crucial role. They are involved in transitioning the ball from defense to offense. They help in defending by intercepting passes and challenging opponents in the midfield area. At the same time, they are responsible for creating attacking opportunities by distributing the ball to forwards and sometimes even joining the attack themselves. Forwards are mainly focused on scoring goals (offense). Goalies are primarily for defending the goal. Sweepers (though less common in modern soccer) were more defensive - oriented.
