Penalties

Throw-ins near goal
Corner kicks
Answer
Throw-ins near the goal provide a significant advantage in creating goal-scoring opportunities. Delap's exceptionally long throw-ins allowed his team to deliver the ball directly into dangerous areas within the penalty box, bypassing the opposition's defense. This tactic increased the likelihood of creating goal-scoring chances and posed a constant threat to the opposing team.
