Cam HughesCoach, England

Good Morning, here are some set-piece patterns you could use with your team:

Pattern 1: Fast Break

1. GK to Wing: Goalkeeper passes to wing (W1 or W2).

2. Wing Drives: Wing dribbles forward.

3. Options:

- Pass to pivot (P).

- Pass to center back (CB) for a shot.

- Wing shoots if open.

Pattern 2: Cross Play

1. GK to CB: Goalkeeper passes to center back (CB).

2. Wing Cross: Wings (LW, RW) cross paths.

3. Options:

- Pass to crossing wing.

- Pass to pivot (P).

- CB shoots if open.

Pattern 3: Double Pivot

1. GK to Wing: Goalkeeper passes to wing.

2. Double Pivot Setup: Pivot (P) and another player (P2) create options near goal.

3. Options:

- Pass to pivot (P or P2).

- Pass to CB for a shot.

Pattern 4: Screen and Roll

1. GK to CB: Goalkeeper passes to center back (CB).

2. Screen: Pivot (P) screens for wing (W).

3. Options:

- Pass to rolling wing.

- Pass to pivot (P) if open.

- CB shoots if open.

Pattern 5: Overload One Side

1. GK to LW: Goalkeeper passes to left wing (LW).

2. Shift: CB and RW move left.

3. Options:

- LW to CB, then CB to RW for a shot or pivot (P) pass.

- Switch play if defense collapses.

These concise patterns focus on quick transitions, creating space, and providing multiple passing options for effective attacks in a 3-3 formation.

I hope this helps,

Cam

Look into out database in the section: Concept play : going to 2:4. Wings and left and right backs can go to pivot position and several opportunities will be given to score goals from these position changes.
