10 vs 10 + 1 Switch of Play

  • Age U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 10-15 players, 16-22+ players

Setup

Pitch: At one end there is one goal, at the other three mini goals.

Equipment: 1 goal, 3 mini goals and several balls.

Players: Two teams of ten players each; one team additionally has a goalkeeper.

Procedure

  • The game is played 10 vs 10.
  • One team plays on the regular goal, the other on the three mini goals.
  • One team additionally has a goalkeeper who is to be used to create a numerical advantage and to escape the pressing.

Tip

  • Make the game wide and deep.
  • Push up as high as possible on the flanks without standing in the cover shadow.
  • Switch play quickly — with two touches, with enough pace on the pass, by luring the opponent in, with passes into the front foot or into the path, and by playing past individual positions.
  • The centre-backs drop off far enough to be available for a pass.
  • Use the space gained on the flanks purposefully and play out the attacks at speed and with a numerical advantage.
