DESCRIPTION

With 3 v 2 with a compulsory pass (hit in from the side line) RW feeds the ball to RM and then all 3 attackers have to try and score a goal.
Tip: things will open up for the attack if after the RW passes the ball he/she runs infield to create space down the wing for a pass to the CF who might run out or the RM to run in to this space. After each attack 2 out of the 3 attackers become the next defenders for the next attack.

3v2:

Coach feeds the ball to MM who plays the ball to RD or LD. These in turn play the ball in to the forwards on their side and play 3v2, (defenders have to play man to man marking for the first pass).

Progression - introduce sweeper into the defence and let the MM join in the game after his pass, making it 4v3.

Overload situations

Creating 2 v 1:

Player 1 passes the ball back to the supporting player. Player 1 then runs in the opposite direction to which he/she wants to receive the ball. The supporting player plays the ball back, first time, into the space created. Player 1 should time the run so that after receiving the return ball, he/she can play a fast 2v1 with the attacker.

Shooting & Goalscoring

Attack from midfield:

The compulsOry pass is a free hit from the RM to the RD. As soon as the pass is given the 3 attackers can try and score a goal. (Tip when the RM passes the ball he/she should try and run diagonally in front of the RD. RD should in turn run into the space created by the RM running out).

Overload situations

holding up the ball against defence:

Feed the ball from the half way line to the player being marked (7). The marked player has to receive the ball and try and keep possession, allowing the 2 supporting players from the half way line to run up. The ball should then be passed to one of the players who should run into the cirlce with the ball, the player should then shoot or pass to score a goal.
A second defender is in the circle, so the two players running through play a 2v1 at the top of the circle.
