Split players in two teams. Red players attackers, yellow players defenders.
PROGRESSION
Red player in position B has to trick his opponent to find the time and space to ask for a pass from player A. Player A passes to player B and receives a back pass. Players in Red move forward trying to score against the yellow players who are the defenders. If the players in Yellow win the ball they may score to the two small goals in the opposite side.
Advice players to create space for themselves by moving the opposite direction before receiving the ball.
Advice players to keep moving to exploit space created and create space for their teammate. Advice players to use their body to protect the ball and if possible make a turn.
