Pick a strategic location and stay there. You'll only get frustrated trying to follow the action around the pitch. Mash the shutter button down in continuous mode and sort it out later whenever it looks like anything is happening. A monopod would help but a tripod is probablu too unwieldy. Try to see where the ball is going and be ready to shoot there when it lands, don't watch the entire game through the viewfinder. And mind you don't get hit! :-)
