Setup
Pitch: Cones mark four starting positions: A at the centre circle, B and C on the right in midfield one behind the other and D centrally in front of the penalty area. A goal with a goalkeeper stands at one end.
Equipment: 4 cones, 1 goal and several balls.
Players: Players A, B, C and D at their cones; plus a goalkeeper. The balls are with Player A.
Procedure
- Player A plays to Player C.
- Player C plays to Player B and a one-two with this player.
- Player C dribbles at speed to the goal line and crosses to Player D.
- Then the positions change: Player A goes to B, Player B to C and Player C to D.
Variations:
- Set players up on the other side as well in order to use both sides. In this case Player C joins the strikers on the left side and Player D joins the starting players for the left; in this way the players go through both sides at the same time.
- Player A plays a one-two with Player B and then passes into the run of Player C.
Tip
- Player A plays a firm pass into the front foot of Player C.
- After the pass to Player B, Player C carries out an explosive change of pace.
- Player C takes the one-two straight into the stride and dribbles at top speed towards the goal line.
- Player D runs into the penalty area with the cross.
