B- Receive and pass across top of 18 to C then attack goal box and finish on delivery from C
C- Receive and delivery cross to B attacking goal, then receive 2nd ball from B and combine with A to get wide of the box and deliver a cross to A and B, then crash the goal from a tight angle and receive on a quick delivery from D
D- deliver to C after cross from C
