- Training Set Main point
- Number of Players 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players, 16-22+ players
Setup
Pitch: Set up as shown in the graphic. A row of cones marks the halfway line of the playing area and forms two cone goals there.
Equipment: 1 goal, 4 cones, 4 tall cones, several balls.
Players: Three groups — attackers, defenders and midfielders — plus a goalkeeper in the goal.
Procedure
Midfielder M plays the ball towards attacker A. Player A sprints towards the ball and receives it. At the same time defender V sprints towards A in order to get into a position behind A.
Player A then tries to get past player V with feints and to finish. If player V wins the ball, player V scores a goal by dribbling through one of the two cone goals.
Tip
- Start explosively towards the ball in order to get as far away from player V as possible.
- This often makes it possible to take the ball with an open body position towards the direction of play.
- Only start the feint when player V goes into the challenge.
