crossing and finishing

Crossing and Finishing Practice:

Organisation: The practice startes with the player in the centre circle. He dribbles the ball 10 yards and then plays a quick 1-2 into player A. He then plays the ball into the corner area for player A to run onto. Player A crosses the ball in first time and the two strikers time their run and attempt to score.

Key Coaching Points: Focus on quality of passing in the build up play, quality of crosses, timing of runs from the strikers and the quality of their finishing.
