blocking balls curved and crossed into the goal area Explanation: A "goal area" vagy "goal box" az 5m-es. A "penalty area" vagy "goal area" a 16m-es. Ha csak a "box"-ot használod (into the box), akkor talán jobb. |

dealing with crosses or saving shots into the goal area Explanation: not quite sure about "eloter" here - could be the six-yard box, or the penalty area, so "goal area" is a bit of a vague compromise! |

intercepting balls lobbed or shot into the penalty area Explanation: An "ívelt labda" is a "lobbed ball", and the előtér (i.e. futball kapu előtt) is the "penalty area". I would use the word "intercept" for "hárítás", since their talking about "a labda megszerzése". Another possible option for "ívelt" would be "bent", as in "Bend it like Beckham". All of these translations are confirmed by the Országh nagyszótár and my own experience playing soccer/football. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2008-07-24 20:05:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The question is: are they saying in this "ajánlólevél" that this particular goalkeeper is only willing to use his physical strength to get the ball in the goal-area/box, or throughout the entire penalty area/box. The penalty area delimits "the area in which a goalkeeper may legally handle the ball". My guess would be that they are stressing his willingness to use his physical strength throughout his "domain" - i.e. throughout the entire penalty area/box. |
