If a player gets the ball in here he has to play forward. If a player gets an assist from the magic box the goal will be worth two goals.Game 2 - In the "magic box" the player must play one touch.Game 3 - In the final third it is not allowed to pass the ball to another player in the final third so the players decide wether to dribble or play it backwards and keeping the ball in the team waiting for an opportunity to attack.Game 4- Players decide the rules.
