Shooting Drill by Mourinho

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

Setup

  • 2 Goals
  • 4 Cones

Procedure

Two players (A & B) start at opposite goals. Player A dribbles forward and passes to B. A makes a run behind B. Once A completes the run, B plays a through ball to A. A then takes a shot on goal.

The sequence repeats with the group starting from the other goal.

Tip

Coaching Points:

  • Sprint at maximum speed when making the run behind.
  • Time the run so it's made just before the pass arrives.
  • Shoot with the first, or at most the second touch.
  • After several repetitions, demand a higher tempo.
  • Start the player with the ball from either the left or right goal post.
