Set Up:
There are 14 players set up in the attacking third, playing 4v2 to goal. To start the drill, a midfielder (Player 1) plays the ball into the box to Player 3 (or Player 4). Play continues from there to completion. If the defenders win the ball, they can score in the two small goals on the end line. The sevice alternates from both midfielders, and new players rotate in from the end lines after each ball.
Coaching Points:
1. Get the defender to follow you, then break away from him.
2. You may have to make two or three runs to get open.
3. After making a back pass, step out and show yourself. Don’t hide behind a defender.
Progressions:
1. Add a third defender.
2. Attackers must score in 15 seconds or less.
Players Required:
14
