Fast Break - Combination Pass:

In this move the winger start with the ball and passes the keeper who returns the pass to the center back.

At this point the wing back and the winger both make a forward run. The wing back receives the pass from the center back and then passes the ball to the winger who has made a looping run behind them.

The winger completes the move with a shot on goal (no dribble before the shot allowed).
