DEFENSIVE PHASE
ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES
OVERALL TECHNICAL THEME: DISCIPLINED INDIVIDUAL DEFENDING
OVERALL TACTICAL THEME: CUTTING OFF PASSING LANES FROM OPPOSITION HALF INTO OUR OWN HALF. FORCE MISTAKES TO WIN THE BALL IN GOOD POSITIONS
BE PATIENT AND DISCIPLINED WHEN DEFENDING AND BE STRONG WHEN NEEDED!!
**OUR SHAPE WHEN WE DON'T HAVE THE BALL IS BASICALLY A 1-4-3-3 (IF THEY PLAY OUT FROM THE BACK)
TOP PRIORITIES:
1) INDIVIDUAL DEFENDING - PATIENCE AND TECHNIQUE
2) SMALL GROUP DEFENDING - DISCIPLINE AND PATIENCE. KNOW WHEN TO RUN AND APPLY HIGH PRESSURE
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
DEFENDERS
**-Be SUPER PATIENT when defending in wide areas in 1v1 battles. Goal is to DELAY as long as possible
- Recovery and delay - we defend centrally towards the goal FIRST then out to the ball!
*- Back line staying connected and applying basic PCB principles
*- Defend centrally first. Defend narrow and compact and if we must yield any ground, yield the ground in the wide areas.
*- Recognizing the moments when to switch to the pressure defender vs the covering defender.
* DO NOT allow any balls through the back line centrally....make everything go wide! (Zone 14 - REMEMBER)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
MIDFIELDERS
**When we lose the ball, how quickly do we mentally and physically transition into a defensive mindset and position? CLICK MOMENTS!
- Critical that we apply pressure but recover centrally (DO NOT CHASE THE BALL HORIZONTALLY ACROSS THE PITCH!)
- Get the right team shape across the middle of the pitch and maintain the shape as we transition from side to side and front to back (4-3-3). FORCE THEM TO GO LONG WITH THE BALL
*-#6 & #8 stay central as much as possible and in playing distance of each other WHEN WE DON'T HAVE THE BALL IN REGULAR POSITIONS
#7, #9 & #11 - Look for passing lanes to cut off into the center midfield areas.STAY CONNECTED TO EACH OTHER. DEFEND EARLIER!! ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE PLAYING OUT FROM THE BACK
When we win the ball back, can we find open players (even if that means going backwards for the purpose of recycling the ball and starting the attack again).
DEFEND WELL, THEN PLAY IN THE DIRECTION WE ARE FACING AND FIND OPENINGS!!
THIS IS SUPER CRITICAL - DON'T TRY TO BE TOO FANCY WHEN WE WIN THE BALL BACK
OUR FIRST 2-3 PASSES AFTER WINNING POSSESSION ARE CRITICAL AND DETERMINE IF WE WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN THE GAME!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ATTACKERS
#7 & #11 starting position when out of position is very narrow to make the center of the field congested.
#7, #11 & #9 - NEW RESPONSIBILITY TO CONNECT TO PREVENT OPPONENT HAVING TIME ON THE BALL AND EASY PATHS INTO MIDFIELD
If the #9 makes a decision to press hard from the front, all the attackers and midfielders must match the intensity to take away passing lanes and try to win the ball high up the field.
#9 IS THE TRIGGER/VISUAL CUE THAT DICTATES WHETHER WE PRESS AS A TEAM.
+++++
DEFENDING SET PIECES
ORGANIZED QUICKLY ON SET PIECES - Our set pieces are a priority; make genuine efforts to win the ball first in defending situations.
DO NOT LET THE BALL BOUNCE!! Bouncing soccer balls in our defensive half/third will be absolutely destructive for us!
Recognize mismatches, recognize strongest players, shape of the wall (tallest players in the direct shooting line, etc, etc). Man to man on corners. High on the 18 yd line for free kicks (TRACK RUNNERS!!!!)
WIN THE PHYSICAL BATTLE!!!
DEFEND IN THE 1ST PHASE, 2ND PHASE, 3RD PHASE AND BEYOND - DO NOT BE A BALL WATCHER AND LOSE TRACK OF YOUR OPPONENT!!
See the guidance at the top of this page to understand why you are not seeing interactive Football/Soccer images.
ATTACKING PHASE
ATTACKING PLAY WHEN IN THE AREA OF THE FIELD WE CALL CLOSE TO GOAL (UPTO 35YDS AWAY FROM GOAL)
TECHNICAL PRIORITY: QUALITY OF THE 1ST TOUCH & PASSING TO CREATE OPENINGS
IF WE DON'T IMPROVE IN THIS AREA WE CAN NEVER ACHIEVE ANY OTHER TACTICAL PRIORITIES!!!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
ATTACKERS - WHEN WE WIN THE BALL HIGH UP THE FIELD, BE ATTACK MINDED AND GO TO GOAL. DON'T BE AFRAID TO SHOOT!
1. COMBINATIONS
- Where can we find 2 v 1s or numerical overloads to get behind the defence?
- Where can overlapping runs be helpful to us?
- What kind of distances do we need to work in to be more successful?
- Communication is critical in building understanding and chemistry for where and when the combination will take place
2. QUICK MOVEMENT
-What comes first? the run or the pass?THE RUN gives visual cues to our teammates
-How do we make sure our teammates are aware of our movement?(the speed/intention of the movement & communication)
- What kind of movement is most likely to unbalance the defenders and create space behind the defense (angled runs at speed)
-When you make a pass horizontal, find a new opening vertically or away from the ball (rotation of other players into the space)
3. QUICK PASSING
- Why take 3,4,5 touches when one or two are enough?
- Be aware of your passing options early (head up) - have a picture in your mind before you get the ball
- don't sacrifice accuracy for speed though!
- can we add any disguise to our passing to unbalance the opponent?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
MIDFIELDERS
**Look for opportunities to get the ball out to the wide areas or up to our #9 in higher areas of the pitch!
** Focus is going to be VERY HEAVY on our technical improvement WHEN CLOSE TO GOAL WHEN TIME AND SPACE IS AT A MINIMUM:
1. THE QUALITY OF OUR FIRST TOUCH?
-can we recognize where the defensive pressure is coming from?
- can we head in the direction we want to pass with our first touch?
- Does our first touch set us up for the pass we want to make next?
- Spatial awareness - do we know the space we have and how to use it effectively
** The QUALITY & DIRECTION of your first touch really sets the stage for maintaining possession.
2. THE QUALITY OF OUR PASSING?
- How accurate is our passing? do we play the ball to the correct foot of the receiving player?
- Is the weight of the pass correct to either lead them into space or give them the best chance to get a quality first touch when receiving?
- can we manage the balance between short accurate passing and longer range passing to switch the point of attack?
See the guidance at the top of this page to understand why you are not seeing interactive Football/Soccer images.
ATTACKING PHASE 2
DEFENDERS
-- GK can be a key connecter from one side of the field to the other side of the field.
Key Ideas for us:
-- Push up higher on long goal kicks or punts to allow us to regain possession higher up the field. Mark generally kicks the ball to the 30+ yd line so our back line can set up around 25+ yd line.
- DO NOT pass the ball straight down the middle to a marked midfielder right in front of our goal
*GK ROLE:
WE ARE GOING TO PLAY OUT FROM THE BACK TO BEGIN THE GAME. ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT WE POSSESS THE BALL BETTER WHEN BUILDING UP FROM THE BACK RATHER THAN KICKING THE BALL LONG.
Depending on the conditions and the opposition, we may look to play out from the back if the situation allows. READ the game and if a quick opportunity arises on the ground can we look to take advantage of it.
*Be conservative with ball distribution
*Punch aerial balls in the box whenever possible!
BE PATIENT: DON'T RELEASE THE BALL TOO QUICKLY

SET PIECES
What are we trying to achieve in different moments of the game?
FREE KICKS - Byron or Ben takes kicks closer to the goal
- if we are inside 40yds from the goal - can we create an attacking moment by putting the ball in a dangerous area.
- if we are inside 25yds - can we take a good strike on goal ensuring that we make the GK work (DO NOT PUT THE BALL OVER THE BAR OR MISS THE GOAL ENTIRELY)
-if we are OUTSIDE 40 yds (or conditions do not allow a good ball into the box) WE POSSESS the ball (only exception, if we are losing and it is towards the end of the game - we might pump the ball in the box then) - DO NOT MAKE ME HAVE TO CALL ANYONE OUT ON THIS!!!
CORNER KICKS - Byron or Ben will take depending on who is in the game.
- let's try to mix up our corner kick repetoire!
Veg = All on the line.
Meat = 1-6 players find their spot (make sure way overhit corners are covered from the back post and beyond.
PKs - Ben, Austin, Will M, Nolan, Byron - if we go beyond 5 kicks the next 3 will be: Barbad, Joaquin, Van Der Meid
