The foundation in defense: recover and attack
The foundation in attack: keep and control
Midfielders+attackers v midfielders/defenders.
Midfielders attampt to keep possession. Defenders attempt to gain the ball and score to the small goal. Small goal forward is counting double.
Midfielders: smart ball circulation. Watch and wait for movement of opponent and play. Exchange position if it necessary.
Defenders - wolf pack tactic. Try to lead the opponent's passing to the best place to regain the ball (f.eks. inside the game area) and attack there. Priority to regain the ball with possibility to start the counter-attack (the double counting goals).
