3) Holding midfielder (Red) looks to screen ball to the 10 and 9 (Depending on which side the ball is being played)

Defending on the wide areas
On the ball
1) When Opposition have ball in wide areas, Red Full back presses with a bent run, blocking the space in behind (white box)
Around the ball
2) Centre backs compact space around striker (if blue wide player plays a one two into the striker, centre back goes with the blue wide player with red full back cutting back inside to block the no.9 and passing lane)
3) Holding midfielder screens the pass into no.9 - this would limit the options of blue wide player playing a one two.
Off the ball
4) 3rd Centre back closes in on the space (holding the line with other two centre backs) to protect and mark the 2nd no.9.
5) Opposite red full back closes space inside to press and cover with holding midfielder (If ball is switched then, cover and press repeats as shown for the right hand side)
