4 v 3. Pressing team in blue. Final 1/3 of the field.
Blue player plays ball to green player facing them, from the blue players pass, blue team presses as a team.
Depending on the direction of greens pass, blue team adjust their roles.
The original blue passer always presses the ball/and cuts the return pass. Nearest wide player to the pass, presses the back of the 2nd pass recieving green player.
The other wide player cuts off the passing option of the near wide player on green team. However their role may change depending on the position of the green wide player.
The central player on blue team presses the green player receiving the first pass from behind.
This is designed to introduce pressing techniques, putting the idea that we should press, 1 when the opp is facing their own goal, and when we press we should press ball, press player or cut passing lanes.
Both teams if possibe can score in their respective goals.
Can we restrict space for Opp?
Can we cut off passing options?
To win the ball.
Can we also look at opp position and adjust our position to suit our role.
Can we force a change in possession or a long kick/kick out of play.
We need to be proactive. Can we make the decsion of where the ball goes by the opposition. Ie. By curving our run, restricting turns, using our body shape.
Progression.
Add another green player to make it 4v4. Green player can be added as a striker (9) and needs to be monitored by middle blue player.
Or as the original passer of the ball. And another blue player is added and located closer to the receiving of the ball.
