double-teaming

Two against one

Double-teaming is when two people work together against one opponent or target.

In sports, two defenders simultaneously guard a single offensive player: They double-teamed the star forward all game.

The concept extends to any coordinated two-on-one effort: The lawyers double-teamed the witness during cross-examination.

In sexual slang, double-teaming refers to two people engaging sexually with a third.
