Start with three players, two attackers and one defender.
Attacker 1 plays the ball in to attacker 2, whi is under pressure from the defender. Shield the ball and then play the ball in to the path of attacker 1 as he runs to the side.
Attacker 2 should turn the defender and receive the ball back to complete getting the ball past the defender.
Allow the defender to be agressive.
Allow the attacker 2 to turn the defender with the ball without passing it if need be.
Allow attacker 1 to run either side of the play.
Progression
Add in a second defender on the side where the attacker is running to.. They can use the same link up again to bypass this defender if they are quick enough
