Patterns for lik up

1 - Defender to midfield to striker

2 - Midfield to striker to midfield (midfielder upon successful completion of their pass to a striker, to combine and link up with the attack in order to overload and give more options).

3 - Counter attack (attacking team combine as a unit quickly and effectively to overload the attack and put the defending team on the back foot).
