Why Tall Players can influence the football game?
Football is not like basketball, all the played game is played on the ground. However height can influence your position on the pitch.
Its biggest impact is in goal. If the goalkeeper is short, you’ll have to find a work-around and it may restrict how far you go. At the end of the day, it seems skill continues to be a bigger factor to focus on than height.
Why Height is not everything for a football goalkeeper?
Mental, physical and technical attributes for a football goalkeeper are part of the goalkeeper package which make a better one. Height cannot be the “only” factor to be a successful goalkeeper.
A successful goalkeeper should be able to stop the shots, make the right decision at the right team, and should know how to control the batter. These few attributes are more important than the height.
