Louis van Gaal - Netherlands Triangle Passing Combinations
Louis van Gaal - Netherlands Triangle Passing Combinations
Set Up:
Player 1 passes up to Player 2 and follows his pass. Player 2 passes the ball back to Player 1 and then runs around the cone. Player 1 touches the ball to Player 2 to complete the combination. Player 3 then makes a run from his cone to receive a lead pass from Player 2. Player 3 dribbles to the starting line as Player 4 starts the next ball. After 5-10 minutes, the drill is run in the other direction.
Coaching Points:
1. Keep the passes in the wall pass combination short.
2. Play directly to feet during the wall pass.
3. Player 3 must hold his run until Player 2 has controlled the ball.
Progressions:
1. Players can call for wall passes or lead passes whenever they receive.
2. Wall passes at every cone or lead passes at every cone.
