noun

Situation de surnombre, chevauchement

A situation in the game where an attacking line has more players in it than the defensive line coming to meet it. The attacking side may exploit the overlap by using their superior numbers to break the opposition's defensive line. If attackers outnumber defenders by more than one player this is often termed a two man overlap or three man overlap, etc. If the attacking side fails to break through usually due to poor execution, they are said to waste an overlap.

Examples :

"The coach stressed the importance of creating an overlap on the wing, so the extra attacker could have a clear shot at the goal. "

L'entraîneur a souligné l'importance de créer une situation de surnombre sur l'aile, afin que l'attaquant supplémentaire puisse avoir un tir clair au but.
