1 vs 1: Attacker with Back to Goal

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Progression
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players

Setup

Pitch: Two red, two blue and two yellow cones mark the starting and finishing lines.

Equipment: 6 cones and several balls.

Players: The team is divided evenly into defenders — yellow — and attackers — blue. The attackers position themselves with a ball evenly along the line of the two red cones; one defender each takes up a position behind an attacker.

Procedure

  • On the coach's start signal, several 1 vs 1 situations begin in parallel.
  • The attackers try to dribble through the two blue cones.
  • The defenders try to win the ball in order to then dribble through the yellow cones.
  • The players may only act within their own duel.
  • Once all the duels are finished, attackers and defenders swap roles and the drill starts again from the beginning.

Tip

  • Keep an arm's length of distance.
  • Do not attack the ball too hastily.
  • Watch the position of the ball and do not be distracted by feints.
  • As soon as the attacker tries to turn, attack the ball.
