Description

Session with AFC Womens 1st Team.

 

First half hour working with GKs to prepare for integration before 1 hour of integrated training with GKs, CAM, Wide midfielders and Strikers focussing on 1V1s and angled finishing.

 

Focus for GKS:

  • Starting positioning and readjustment when playing out and losing position
  • Starting positioning and decision making on through balls (Whether to come or drop off; choice of technique to make save)
  • Awareness of triggers which can help to select the most effective technique for the situation i.e. recovering defender, weight of pass, quality of first touch, strikers head dropping to strike
  • Improve awareness of different 1v1 scenarios that may arise based on the movement of opponents

Integrated Practice 1v1s

Set up/Organisation/Description:

  • 4 mannequins to represent a compact back 4 that have lost possession
  • 1 fullback (opposition winger out of possession)
  • 1 striker (occupying 2 CBs)
  • 1 CDM (opposition CAM out of possession)

Instructions/Explanations:

  • Full back plays back pass to GK who then aims to play through opposition into CDM
  • CDM then becomes opposition CAM (due to intercepted pass/ loss of possession in defensive third); fullback then becomes opposition winger
  • CAM, Striker, Winger can then combine to create different 1v1 scenarios (Some passages of play suggested below)
  • If GK gathers ball they start transition aiming to distribute to goals either side 

     

     

    Passage of Play 1: 

  • CAM plays through ball for striker (playing on the shoulder or running between CBs or CB and full back or winger (maintaining width wide and cutting behind fullback/ curving run between fullback and CB) who have ran in behind defence 

     

     

    Passage of Play 2:

  • CAM links with winger or striker and then plays through ball for 3rd man run i.e. links with striker and plays winger through

     

     

    Passage of Play 3:

  • CAM links with striker who has dropped deep to pull CB out of position. Striker can then play CAM who has run beyond into space for 1v1

     

     

    Passage of Play 4:

  • CAM plays striker for first time pass round the corner for winger running in behind
