Attack on the defensive line with plays
Summary

Situational drill for the finishing phase

Organization

Create a 50×50-meter/55×55-yard field. Place a goal halfway along one of the short sides. Inside the field, line up two teams of seven players plus a goalkeeper to defend the goal. One team attacks the goal (white team) and the other defends it (red team). For the team attacking the goal, organize your preferred lineup for building and finishing plays.

Description

One team plays to reach the goal, while the other plays to build up and pass to a teammate behind the end line (midfield line).

Rules

  • The action begins with the team attacking the goal and always starts with a complex technical gesture:
    • opening up to the outside player and then play
    • key pass and then play
    • direct attack and then play

Coaching Points

  • Check the quality of choices in relation to shared individual and collective playing principles
  • Assess the adoption of playing principles, in particular checking the quality of the following actions: attacking the goal, give and go, back pass, triangle, dribbling
