Phase of Play 6 v 7 Midfield Atacking (15 mins)

Method:

The attacking Team set up in a 4-1-1
Defending Team in a 1-4-2
Practice starts from the Red 6 who can play wide or centrally to create scoring opportunities
If the Blue team turns the ball over they should attack the mini goals in a T2A. The closest player to the ball on the red team should press the ball while teammates provide cover and balance in the T2D

Coaching Points:

CF occupies the two central defenders to create space for the 10 to play in
RW and LW are high and wide to maximize space centrally
10 & 8 try to attempt to play off the shoulder and between the lines to exploit the space
Encourage penetrative runs from the midfield to create space by dragging the midfield out of play
