I need a drill to combat break away goals

There is no one drill to combat this because it happens to be one of the most difficult, not to mention, dangerous situations in football. You have to combat these things as a team because the breakdown can occur anywhere on the pitch. As I have mentioned in earlier answers, the first step is to identify and cut out the early ball. Breakaway goals don't happen when players start running the length of the pitch (unless you're playing Messi). The early ball, which is played to attackers and frees up space to attack, is the first priority I have attached a simple but effective drill to work on this. If you like, I have some follow-up drills that then lead to a more game-like scenario.
