  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players

Setup

  • 8 cones
  • On the wings, position groups of three players: Midfielder A (with balls), Winger B, and Defender C. Behind C, mark a diagonal target line (=breakthrough towards the goal).

Procedure

A passes to B, who tries to dribble past C over the line. C steps towards B briefly, matches his speed, and forces him towards the outside.

• Change roles after 5 to 7 minutes.
• Take short steps and quickly assume a sideways position to avoid being overtaken.
• As soon as possible, position your body between the ball and the opponent.

Tip

• Vary the distance between player B and C to practice 1 vs. 1 on the wing both in a short and long distance.
