RM (starting with the ball), passes to RW who first time (wall) passes it back.
The RM then passes the ball to RW who runs in field with the ball. RM then overlaps and this means that the RW has two options:
a) pass the ball to overlapping player or b) straighten up and go for the goal him/her self.
RM passes the ball to forehand of RW who then adds to the pass and plays 1 v 1 against the defender.
