1v1 - 2v1

1v1 - 2v1

Player receives the ball from A with a defender directly behind them.  Looks to create space to take the player on/score in opposite goal.  After first ball is dead, the same player looks to receive a ball from B and plays 1v1 again.  If the defender wins the ball they look to counter and score in the opposite goal/gate.  After second ball is dead red players rotate in a circle, blue players return.  Field Dimensions - 20 Length 15 width (depending on facility/field space).

Time - 3 minutes then swap roles

Coaching Points

  • Show me how can you set yourself up for success before receiving the ball.
  • Show me how you can use the defender behind you to your advantage
  • Ensure you are shielding the ball to be able to turn to attack space or combine with team mate..

Progressions

  • Ball from A and B is now a throw in and can support to make a 2v1. As soon as the ball from A is dead A leaves the field they do not stay on.  Should always be a 2v1.

1v1, 2v2, 2v2.

Player A plays a big pass into the first red and plays a 1v1 situation, both teams looking to score in their appropriate goal. As soon as the ball is dead all players stay on the field, Player B makes a 2v1 situation.  As soon as that ball is dead Player C make a 2v2 situation.  After the third ball is finished red players swap sides and blue players swap sides. 1 point per goal, play for 5 minutes then swap the roles of the Reds and Blues. Field dimension 25x25 adjust as needed for team.

Coaching Points

  • Show me how you can unbalance your opponent
  • Can you get your head up and make the correct decision based on your picture i.e. shoot vs dribble vs pass, use team mate or as a decoy
  • Show me how you can be successful before receiving the ball.
Progressions
  • For the ball coming in from B and C must be a throw in now so players are receiving the ball with pressure from behind.
