When guys form a line in front of a direct free kick, they are careful to protect a certain delicate area.
Women, on the other hand, cross their arms across their chest.
I knew a woman who loved to watch soccer on TV. They were men’s matches, of course. She finally decided at 29 to try the game herself. The first time she was part of a line in front of a direct kick, all the other players crossed their arms across their chest, while she held hers like the male players she had seen on TV.
Bill,
Funny,
Because in 35 years of playing I know Very few men that wear the cup. The are uncomfortable and get hot.
Who really wants to get hit there even with a cup??????
Besides the character saying it (Bailey), is notorious for being wimpy.
Good job.

Did they forget to wear cups? Or do they all just need a potty break?

OTOH, there are protectors for “a certain delicate area” for women, as well - presumably to allow them to use their arms as you describe.
I am informed that one well-known (gay) British female athlete referred to it as her “manhole cover”…

This is a very educational web page.
The kid is not wearing a hat, he has prematurely gray hair. At least that’s how the coloring elves colored him.
