Screen 4 (30 mins)

1. Small pitches with goals and no goalkeepers. Two players play 1v1 on each pitch, coach passes a ball into either player to score from anywhere in their opponents half of the pitch. Play 1st to 3/4/5 goals or 3 minutes which ever comes first. Emphasis on defender shutting attacker down quickly so making the attacker beat the defender to score. Resting players by the side of each goal.

2. Progress to playing 2v1 with attacking team only having 5/6/7 seconds to score past the line of cones to emphasise quick attacking play. Coach to alternate each time which team receives the ball.
