Setup

The 4-3-2-1 system initially only defines the number of field players in the individual team parts. The goalkeeper is initially excluded from this counting method in the exercise title. In this 4-3-2-1 system presented here, the team parts are arranged pyramid-shaped on the field. The individual team parts are indicated in lines. The first line is the goalkeeper. The second line the four-back chain, the third line three defensive, the fourth the two offensive midfielders and the fifth line the striker. If the own team has the ball, the goalkeeper moves between his goal and the middle of his own half of the game, so that he has a distance of approx. 20 meters to the defense chain and is always playable as a kind of libero and can intervene in the back of the defense with long balls. The field players should take advantage of the width and depth of the entire playing field if they have the ball. This system is played with two central defenders, two full-backs in the back row, in midfield with a defensive triple chain and two offensive midfielders in front and with a central top. With own ball possession, the staggering with three offensive players means that there are fewer target stations near the dangerous area. If the opponent has possession of the ball, the team moves in the defensive alliance in the 4-3-2-1 line formation on an area of ​​maximum 35 x 35 meters. The defensive formation is characterized in your starting position by a line positioning of the individual team parts. That the four defenders are on line, the three defensive midfielder, the two offensive midfielder and the central striker as well. This creates four lines of defense. It is important to keep certain distances between each other, which ensures optimal defense of your own goal. These distances are usually as follows: 7-12 meters wide and 8-15 meters deep. The distances between the individual players and team parts can vary due to an inconsistent game pace, changes in the game situation or due to a temporary short game. In the team alliance, a compact, disciplined shift is aimed at, with the aim of narrowing the spaces and thus not allowing the opponent to pass into the depth on the one hand, and depriving him of the opportunity to start individual actions on the other is ensured. One of the most important tactical duel measures is to steer the ball-carrying player onto the outside lane and to get possession of the ball by double, and to direct the opening of the opposing team to the outside players by shifting the pass routes So that the only possible pass left is the middle one. There the player is then doubled and put under massive pressure.
