I caught the end of the Mexico/Iran match and I'm a bit hooked.

I dont know much about the game, though. All my understanding is generalized from hockey. So anyone want to lay down a primer?

What are the position names? is there a sweeper or did I make that up? Whats a striker? Is that like the center, or any forward that strikes on goal?

I get the corner kicks, goal kicks, yellow cards, off sides, etc.

Can they call dives? or is it wrapped in delay of game?

When the tv flashed up player info there was some stat..CAP, I think. what's that?

Thanks in advance.
