First-time
How to understand the term “first-time”?
What is the definition of “first-time” in football?
First time is used in football to describe when a player gives a pass or hits a shot without having to control the ball beforehand. A first-time shot can often catch the defense out as they are not ready, while a first-time pass can also open up a defense. Players who use this skill often have good technique as they need to rely on their touch, their control and their vision. So, you will often hear this phrase collocating with the words pass or shot but hardly ever with tackle or header: first-time shot or first-time pass.
Examples:
- The player hit a first-time volley to open the scoring.
- The team opened up their opponent’s defense with a series of first-time passes.
