An attacker on the side line leads towards the ball and calls. The player passes and attacker receives on the run. The attacker enters a 1-on-1 situation in a box. The ball makes it to the other side and the attacker makes a pass to a player making a lead inside the attacking box. There is a 3-on-2 situation inside the attacking box and a goal is scored.
