Lateral 1 vs 1 II

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19, Men's / Women's
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 1 - 5 players, 6 - 9 players, 10-15 players

Setup

Pitch: Mark out an area of 20 x 15 metres with cones. On the shorter sides there are 2 mini goals each, with an end zone marked 5 metres in front of them from which finishes may be taken.

Equipment: Cones, 4 mini goals, bibs in three colours, balls.

Players: Three teams in their own bib colours. One team waits outside the playing area level with the middle on the left, one team on the right. The third team stands with balls between the two mini goals on one side. The coach stands next to the playing area.

Procedure

  • The coach calls up one of the two waiting teams.
  • The first player of the team between the mini goals sets off into the playing area with the ball and tries to score in the opposite goals.
  • The first player of the team called up also sets off into the playing area, tries to prevent the goal and, on winning the ball, to score in the opposite goals.
  • Finishes may only be taken from the end zone.

Note: Drill idea by Eddie Plickat.

Tip

  • The defender should close the distance at speed and force the player on the ball out towards the side.
  • The attacker goes into the playing area at speed and has to watch the direction from which the opponent approaches.
  • The attacker either looks for the direct 1 vs 1 with a feint or uses the space and avoids the duel through speed.
