  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players, 16-22+ players

Setup

• 1 goal (with goalkeeper)

• 8 cones

Procedure

Player M passes the ball to player A.

The attacking player A runs towards the ball and controls it.

Defender V sprints towards Player A, stays tight on his back and applies pressure.

Now, player A uses feints and speed to beat the defender.

If the defender wins the ball, he can score by dribbling through one of the cone goals.

Tip

Coaching Points:

• An explosive little sprint by the striker can separate him from the defender

• By creating this separation space, the striker can take his touch into his movement and use his speed to beat the defender
