Game 5v4 on the sides

Attackers: push the opponent out from the middle sector. Be patient and wait for the best moment to pressing. Hold shape and insurance and support.
Defenders: create a big pitch (stretch the boundaries) in the build-up phase.
High tempo of passes.
Receiving and passing by two touch (fast as possible).
