Guys I think in my opinion Chess is similar as football. Both the games have tactics, attack and defence.. Some players prefer to play attacking game in the start while some players play defensive game. I would like to mention chess pieces position. 8 pawns and 2 Rooks in the defensive position. 2 Bishops and 2 Knights in the attacking position. While Queen play in midfield who cover both attack and defence. At last King is the goalkeeper which you need to beat in order to win the game.. Goal
