head special events

[blackout]

a few questions. I remembered reading in the rules awhile back, that a high SP player, and head specialists as forwards and defenders increased your chance to score on a header. SO, I have a pretty high SP/scoring guy, and now have 2 defenders with a head specialty. I re-read the rules, and looks to be written differently than i remember. Now it looks like all players with the head specialty can help on freekicks/corners?

also, is there any negative events to players with the head specialty?

and lastly, I think I saw in a match report once that a rebound was headed in (by a player with a head specialty)... is that a special event, or just a coincidence?

I think thats about it, thanks!

With regards to negatives, a technically inclined player can have an event against your header specialist (think of them as tall players). Per section 10 of the Help:

Technical wingers and forwards can create a chance if their opposing defender or inner midfielder is a head specialist.

As far as I can remember, all players with header specialty can help you with set pieces and winger events.
