to play with/against the wind — It is easier for a football team to play when the
wind if there is one is blowing in their backs
i. e. they are "playing with the wind" than when it is blowing in their faces, i. e. they
are playing against it. If the captain loses the toss (
see above),
his team has to play
with their faces to the wind in the first time, but in the second time the teams change
places.
to kick off — to begin a game of football by kicking the ball
Come on! — 1. Thy harder! Make an effort! 2. Hurry up! 3. Cheer up!
the game of his life — the most important game of his life, the game that could
decide his future and be the making of him (вывести его в люди)
3 minutes to go — There are three minutes left.
