Cette partie de terrain n'est pas délimitée; elle varie avec les déplacements de l'équipe à l'attaque d'une part et de l'équipe à la défense d'autre part. Il y a donc, au soccer, deux parties de terrain qu'on appelle «milieu du terrain». Ne pas confondre avec le demi qu'on appelle également «milieu de terrain». 2, record 2, French, - milieu%20du%20terrain
