Football/Soccer Session (Moderate): Crossing From Different Areas

Screen 1 (10 mins)

Example for a 4-4-2 formation, but only using midfielders and strikers.

Practice crossing and movements from 3 different areas.

- Early

- Normal

- Late

If the ball is coming down the right-hand side, then the right sided center midfielder goes to offer support to the winger, whereas the other center midfielder goes to the edge of the box incase of a knock-down from a defender.

If the ball is going down the left side, then the roles of the central players is reversed.

The other winger mkes a late run into the box, just as the ball is about to be crossed in,

Progression could be different movements of the strikers, where they run to opposite posts just as the ball is about to be crossed in.
