Attacking in the Final Third: 4v0

  • Age U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players

Setup

  • Use 6 dummies to simulate the back four and the defensive midfielders
  • Attacking players fill the striker, attacking midfielder, and winger positions
  • Place two training poles in the two corners of the big goal to stimulate the precision of the shooting

Procedure

  • The attacking midfielder starts by dribbling towards the dummies and then passing the ball to the striker (9).
  • The striker controls the ball, turns and passes the ball to either number 7 or 11, who do alternating runs on the wings.
  • Number 7 takes his touch forward and passes into the middle to number 9, who finishes on goal.

Variation:

Play multiple passing patterns (e.g.: Number 10 passes the ball out to 7, who plays a one-two with number 9 and crosses afterwards)

Tip

Coaching Points:

• Variation to introduce the drill: Let the players build the attack without any tactical restrictions like specific passing patterns or limited touches

• As the drill progresses, focus on game-like intensity and quality

• Clinical finishing
