Corners are the best part on the field. It is the most succesful chance to win a goal. But every team knows, when corners are take, they should be aware.

Corners are good chances to score a goal. Back in 1998, France scored 2 of their 3 goals against Brazil with corners. A kick, a header, and it could be a goal.

Actually, plenty of goals are scored from corners.
A corner is an excellent opportunity for the attacking team to try and score, and hence defenders will always try to avoid conceding a corner if possible. You will also hear corners referred to as being "forced"..in other words the attacking side have given the defending side no alternative but to put the ball over their own line for safety.

Well, the option really is a goal kick. If you get the corner you get possession, if it's a goal kick, you lose it. having the ball obviously better than not having it hence 'win' the corner. And it depends who you're playing against - a corner v England is almost certainly gonna result in a goal...

if the ball is going out of play at either end of the field, it is a battle between the defender and the striker to get either a goal kick or a corner.
if the attacking player manages to kick the ball against the defender and it goes out of play for a corner, then he has "won" the corner.

Because sometimes if there is no support from the mid-field or if theres no other options a player will deliberately hit it off the defender to 'win' a corner and get the support he needs up front.

Actually, a lot of things can happen during a corner kick. Which is why commentator make a note of it.

Because they still have their mind set on the game the way it was played 30, 40 years ago. Then, players knew how to take adventage of them. Now, with the stupid ritual of pairing, dancing and pushing, is an exercize on futility.
