Method: This drill is for the defender and goalkeeper, the opposition play a pass before the ball goes wide to the winger the attackers attack the box while the opposite winger makes a run into the back post, the defenders and goalkeeper have to react and get into position as quick as they can to defend the cross that is coming into the box.
