Attacking Actions: Play on the Wing

Pitch: Four cones mark a narrow wide zone along the touchline that reaches as far as the penalty area line. One mini goal stands in the corner on the goal line, a second one in the penalty area.

Equipment: 2 mini goals, 4 cones and several balls.

Players: One winger, one full-back, one central player and one player pushing up; attackers and defenders wear different colours of bibs.

• The winger receives a pass from a central player and goes into a 1 vs 1 against the full-back.
• The aim is to cross the back line of the wide zone and then to shoot directly at goal or to lay the ball back before the goal line to the player pushing up.
• That player finishes on the mini goal.

Variations: The drill can be played with and without the defender following up behind the wide zone.
