 Sliding tackle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A sliding tackle or slide tackle is a tactic used in football (soccer) in which a defending player attempts to take the ball away from an opposing player by deliberately leaving his or her feet and sliding along the ground with one leg extended to push the ball away from the opposing player.
Sliding tackles can often be sources of controversy, particularly when players being tackled fall down over the tackler's foot (or the ball stopped by the tackler's foot), and penalties, free kicks and cards are assessed (or are conspicuous by their absence).
The slide tackle is attractive to the defender because they allow him or her to cover a larger area of ground whilst attempting to dispossess an opponent.

Ideally, a player should commit to tackle when he or she knows there is defensive support in case of a miss, or in case there is no doubt of a successful tackle, and sometimes when it’s absolutely essential to dispossess a player in a scoring position.
