the art of defending

http://www.gamedesign.jp/flash/chatnoir/chatnoir.html

understand this game, and i think you understand what defending is all about.

when to kill the space, when to let him have the space, which space to kill, when to pressure, how to link up with your fellow defenders to trap him, how you need to calculate precisely how much space to give him so that you are in control of the situation, how one mistake can be so costly, how if you ever put yourself in the situation where you are chasing him, you are in deep trouble, how you can seem to be giving him the space, only for him to fall into your trap, how to give him space to buy you time to have a proper defence.

and of course, if you understand how a defender functions, you know how to beat him.

if an attacker and a defender know the same thing, the attacker will always have the advantage of the moment of magic.
