Looking for players to make overlapping runs in behind the defence. Weight and accuracy of pass, timing of runs, movement off the ball and communication are key.

See the guidance at the top of this page to understand why you are not seeing interactive Football/Soccer images.
Now looking to put earlier intro into a game like scenario.
Set up cones A, B, C as shown with a 5x5 target box in the corner.
A plays to B and begins an overlapping run in behind B towards the corner. B lays of to C and begins an attack run in behind C and towards goal. C plays the ball in deep to the target zone for A to run onto and shifts to position B. Player A on receipt crosses the ball in for B who attempts to finish.
A proceeds to the back of C line and B goes to back of line A.
Progression:
- Work other side
- Add two defenders
Coaching points:
- Shoulder check
- Weight and accuracy of pass
- Pace and position of cross
- Accuracy over power on finish
- Timing of runs

Skill Intro (15 mins)
Mark out area 20x10 wide.
Sequence starts by A playing into B. B plays square to C and follows pass, in the meantime A has bent his run around B to receive pass from C. C changes positions with B after playing the ball. A plays into D and the sequence starts again.
Notes:
A and D always overlap behind the person they played the ball to
B and C always change sides after their pass.
Swap the middle players after a few minutes.
Coaching Points:
- Weight and accuracy of pass
- Timing of run
- Communication
Can we play first time?
