In football , Carpet
Football is where the players weave their passes from foot
to foot. It is often associated with possession
football.
Sometimes referred to as "keeping it on the deck",
it gains its name from the fact that the ball rarely leaves the
ground (where a carpet is
normally in a room).
Brazil and Argentina are widely and
traditionally considered to be the best teams to perform this type
of play. A good example of this style of play resulting in a goal
is Esteban Cambiasso's goal in Argentina's
game against Serbia and
Montenegro in the 2006 World Cup, which was the result of
24 consecutive passes between members of the Argentine
team.
