Coaching the back 4 in this simple game. It's basically a 4v4 except the defenders must retreat and get compact until they reach the Green line. The defender closest the ball has to pressure the opponent. Switch roles. Red team must be creative in attacking movement in order to try and create space to exploit and/or make runs behind the defenders (without being offside).
Remove restrictions and allow 4v4 free play.

5v5+5
Start with a ball in both outside grids. Teams play 5v1 until they make 5 passes. Then a second defender joins to make 5v2. As soon as a team loses possession they must switch to become defenders and immediately pressure the far grid.
Progression
1 ball, after 3 passes a secon defender joins, after 5 passes we try to switch the ball to the opposite grid.
Coaching Points
- Good angles
