Transition with Counter-Pressing

  • Organisation

    • Two goals
    • Divide into 2 teams
  • Process

    • Two players from Team Green start with a pass from the goalkeeper to play 2 vs 3 against Team Red
    • If Team Red gains possession through effective doubling, they transition and try to score immediately
    • At the same time, two additional players from Team Green enter the field to make it 4 vs 3 for counter-pressing and attempt to win the ball back and score
  • Tip
