👉 Escalader is a term used in the context of sports, specifically in football. It refers to a player who has been given the responsibility of leading or guiding their team's attack, often as a substitute goalkeeper or forward. Escaladers are typically called upon to take on this role when their own team is facing an opponent with a strong defensive line and is looking for an opening to score. They are expected to use their experience and skill to disrupt the opposing defense and create scoring opportunities.
