To the flanks for Sporting Kansas City’s Pitch Pit at Houston Dynamo

The pitch at Houston Dynamo’s PNC Stadium is 73 yards wide. It’s time to get paint on your shoes, boys!

The flanking maneuver is a basic military tactic with several variations. Flanking entails attacking from one or more sides, at an angle to the enemy. There are three standard flanking maneuvers. The first is the ambush.

The second type is used during an attack, where a unit encounters an enemy defensive position. Upon receiving fire [defensive pressure] from the enemy, the unit commander may order a flank attack.
