mark (needs to mark
Explanation:
"In association football, MARKING is an organized defensive strategy which aims to prevent a member of the opposing team (usually a striker) from taking control of the ball. Several marking strategies exist in football, and they mostly differ to each other according to duties assigned to defenders, positioning and off-the-ball style."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marking_(association_football)

If this is regarding defensive football this might work.

Example sentence(s):
  • "Writing a guide on marking or defending is generally something I never like to do, because even though the theory is sound, you'll always get the odd instance in-game when it appears that your defence isn't working."
