What is shown in the scene
The first player has turned slightly and lifted one foot so the heel can guide the football backward. Behind him, a teammate runs forward with open arms and watches the ball, ready for the pass. A simple field line lies nearby and helps show the direction of play. Farther back, a small goal sits between low bushes, while scattered grass tufts keep the setting light and uncluttered. The scene focuses on the unusual backward pass, the receiving teammate and the space between them.
Football passing facts
A backheel pass is made by contacting the ball with the heel and directing it behind or across the body. Because the player may not be facing the receiver, awareness of teammates and space is especially important. Accurate passing usually depends on the angle of the foot, the strength of the touch and the position of the receiving player. In team play, a short pass can move the ball quickly without one player carrying it for long. Teammates often watch the ball and adjust their running line so they can receive it comfortably.
