    The correct answer is midfield because players in this position are allowed to run throughout the full field. Midfielders have the responsibility of both defending and attacking, so they need to be able to cover the entire pitch. They play a crucial role in linking the defense and the attack, providing support to both areas of the field. Their ability to run and cover ground is essential in maintaining a balanced and effective team structure.
