Progression Game: 3v3 + 1 to 2v2 in the Final Third 
-
Organisation
• 4 cones
• Mark a square at the halfway line (see graphic)
-
Process
3 attackers and 1 neutral player will play against 3 defenders in the marked square.
After completing four passes, the attacking players can leave the field by playing a final pass outside of the square.
The attacking players will then play a 3v2 sequence against the 2 waiting defenders and will try to score or create a chance.

Tip
Coaching Points:
• Use the additional player in the red square for quick passes and creating consistent passing triangles
• In the 3v2 sequence, try to be direct in speed and passing to create a goal-scoring opportunity within 10 seconds
• Defenders cover spaces in behind, drop, and block passing lanes
