3v3 Plus One, #2
3v3 Plus One, #2
Set Up:
There are ten players set up in the attacking third, playing 3v3 plus one in a central zone. During the drill, the attackers try to maintain possession and complete a thru pass between two defenders, sending a teammate into the penalty area for a finish on goal. If the defenders win the ball, they become the attacking team. When a goal is scored or a ball is put out of play, the Feeder re-starts the game in the central zone.
Coaching Points:
1. Play one and two touch soccer, and get the ball off of your foot.
2. Fake the thru pass when the opportunity closes down and make a different choice.
3. Move to a wide position, and then make a blind side run in behind the defender.
Progressions:
1. Progress to 5v4.
2 Add a defender starting from the six yard box.
