Tripping

Tripping: the act of placing a stick, knee, foot, arm, hand or elbow in such a manner that causes his opponent to lose balance or fall.

You can either trip a player or get tripped.

I got tripped and ruined a player's career.

Now I feel like I keep falling.

Except this time I'm causing the love of my life to trip and fall with me.

Or away from me.
