If the ball crosses the goal line and was last touched by a defensive player then there are two possible restarts.
1. If it crossed between the goal posts and under the cross bar, then a goal is awarded and the restart is a kick-off for the defense.
2. If it crossed outside the goal posts or over the cross bar, then the restart is a corner kick for the attackers.

A natural hattrick in soccer refers to a player scoring three consecutive goals in a single match without any other player scoring in between. It is a rare and impressive achievement that showcases a player's skill and effectiveness in front of goal.
In soccer, an advanced forward is a player positioned closer to the opponent's goal, typically known for their goal-scoring abilities and offensive skills. They play a key role in leading the attack and creating scoring opportunities for their team.
The only 'offensive' player would be the server, who always starts out the point. No player really plays offense or defense, because no player (or pair of players in doubles) always retains possession of the ball. In basketball, football, and soccer, a team or player has possession of the ball, and the opposing team has to prevent the team from scoring. In tennis, the server starts out the point and has the starting offensive advantage, but since tennis players rally (unlike those of basketball, football, and soccer), there is no definitive offensive player.
Scoring three goals in soccer is called a hat trick.
