Two teams play a normal game of soccer with two or three goals to defend and eaual number of goals to attack too.
Object of the game is win by one goal and no more than one. This creates a possesion game once they score and the winning team need to just posses the ball.
In this game the players should learn to be able to keep possesion and make the most of the opprunity when it is presnted. There are times in a game when we just need to slow it down and just possess the ball and wait for an opprotunity to go to goal.
