space

- half pitch

- 3x mini goals 1x 11v11 goal

- balls start with in possession goal kick

setup

- in possession (1343) using 1-3-4

- out of possession (1433) using 3-3

conditions/targets/challenges

- ip score in the three mini goals - can you do it in minimum passes? - can we look to play one phase before scoring?

- op - 10 seconds to score on regain - challenge to force one way and win the ball high.

Problems/solutions

1) op high press showing one way - ip flat back 3+gk - (outside cb on outside shoulder + gk occupy middle of goal) - (ip 6 false fullback).

2) op 6 jumps onto ip 6 - (6s drop down - play over to 10s) - (play a phase to get a 10 roll out).

key considerations/coaching points

- tactical focus on/around/away from the ball.

- focus on playing around/through/over.

- intentional coaching positions.

- technical details - e.g., movement - body position - front foot or back foot.

problem 1

- blue 9 forcing one way - cutting half of the pitch and trapping our outside centre-halfs

- blue's being narrow and compact = struggling to play around/through

solution(s)
- centre-back starts with goal kick to make it difficult for blues to lock on one way. - overloaded centre-back play on the outside shoulder of the winger (creating a 2v1 to play around).
- if the winger drops slightly - room is created to step in and play through the bottom of the box.
- 10s pin high to create space for 2v1 bottom of the box.

problem 2

- blue six jumps onto bottom of box (player for player press).

solution 1

- bottom of the box drop right down and look to entice blues into pressing.

- centre back/gk looks to clip a 10 and player over the press.

- outside centre-back may now look to drop down and bring a winger forward.

solution 2

- if blues play slightly deeper then opens up multiple options to play through/over/around depending on the blues decision to press.

- play a phase and get a 10 to roll outside
