Summary

How to open the defensive line to shoot at goal

Organization

Create a rectangle of 40x50 meters in the middle of the pitch using markers. Divide players into two teams, six against five. On one short side place a goal and on the opposite side create two small goals with cones.
 

Description

  • The team of six players has to score in the goal, the team of five has to score in the small goals made with cones
  • Example:
    • A1 passes the ball to teammate A2
    • A2 tries to combine with A3 through a wall pass in order to create goal opportunities
    • A2 shoots at goal
  • At the end of the series swap teams

 

Coaching Points

  • Forwards have to receive the ball with their body facing the goal
  • Forwards should move without ball in order to create some space
  • Work on wall pass
