Red team vs Blue team.
Set up a diamond midfield formation
2 strikers, 4 midfield, 4 defenders.
Set up cones as shown on the diagram
(3 sets of cones. 2 pairs before the top of the diamond numbered "1", one pair of cones lower down in the middle of the diamond numbered "2")
Works on the Defence channelling the ball into certain areas.
The 2 red team strikers try to stop the blue team from playing the ball through either of the "1" cones, so that play is encouraged into a central area (top of the diamond).
Once the blue player with the ball has reached the top of the diamond, players will looks to direct him outside of the "2" cones and into wide areas (occupied by the 2 red wide midfielders).
Red fullbacks need to recognise where the ball is going and move into an advanced wide position to put pressure on opposition's wide players.
By doing this the red team are attempting to dictate how the ball moves.
Play for half an hour.
