Set Play Down the Wing IV

  • Age U6 - U13, U14 - U19
  • Training Set Main point
  • Number of Players 10-15 players, 16-22+ players

Setup

A goal with a goalkeeper is set up on one end of the field. 8 field players are positioned as shown in the diagram. Two players each go to the left/right wing, 10-15 metres apart. The two strikers take their positions 10 metres apart, at the height of the penalty area line. The remaining players line up in pairs to the left and right behind Players B and C. The balls are at the centre circle.

Procedure

The drill begins with a diagonal ball from C to A, who lays it off directly to I. B plays the returned ball directly into the run of Player E. E finishes B's ball by crossing it at full speed in front of the goal. Player A positions himself in the left half-space. Simultaneously with B's pass to E, the four players B, C, H, and D start toward the goal into the back space. Just before E's cross, the two strikers I and J start toward the goal. Their running paths cross at the 18-yard line. All players try to finish the cross.

Tip

- The strikers cross toward the near and far post. - When crossing, it is important that the players start moving after the second-to-last pass and explosively switch positions at sprint speed just before the crosser's backswing. - The crossing players and attackers must not start too early. - Ensure that the rehearsed movement patterns lead to a quick, fluid overall movement. - Eyes should regularly look up from the ball (alternating between looking at the ball and ahead). - The player expecting the pass makes a short counter-movement simultaneously with the passer's backswing. - The pass should be played into the running path of the player expecting the ball. - The passer must observe the running path of the player expecting the ball. - 1 full-size goal(s)
