Counter Attacking
Practice Organisation
-Area 40x30yds, using penalty area divided into 2 zones (30x30 & 10x30yds), appropriate size goals at each end, as illustrated.
-14 players (incl 2GKs), arranged 5 Attackers v 7 Defenders, as shown in the diagram.
-Off-side lines may be drawn, or practice can operate with (or without) normal off-side rules applying.
-D’s leave 1 striker in advance zone who can try to win the ball early.
-Remaining D’s drop into deep or middle zone and can only win ball back there.
-If D’s win ball: they counter-attack, playing initially through lone striker.
-If A’s regain possession whilst defending the counter-attack; D’s retreat back to deep zone to defend & practice continues with A’s in possession.
-When ball goes dead; -practice recommences with initial set-up arrangements.
Key coaching points
-D;s need to be patient, slide, cover and communicate
-D’s looking for interceptions and being aware of possibility to act fact and counter-attack, should the opportunity arise
-D’s require defensive security to safeguard against the possible threat of a counter of the counter-attacking from A’s
-A’s looking for quality of passing, movement and support play to break down the defensive block.
-D’s looking for opportunity to pass forward quickly with quality and precision to lone striker.
-Supporting runs, distances and angles by breaking players combining with lone striker.
