Players work in threes in this drill, 2 attackers trying to get past the single defender and score in one of the two goals.
The white player starts with the ball and dribbles towards the defender where they are presented with two options: They can either pass to the supporting player or take the ball themselves to go and score in one of the two corner goals.
Encourage players to use the V cut or a feint to commit the defender before either taking the ball on themselves or passing to their partner.
