🔥 Attacking Overloads in the Final Third | 86-P9

This functional practice focuses on enhancing possession skills and exploiting attacking advantages in the final third. It starts in the possession zone, where a 6 v 2 rondo intensifies the session. The aim is for the attacking team to complete 8 passes, transitioning to attacking teammates in open play (6 v 4). As the breakout pass occurs, the defensive fullback initiates their recovery run to stop the attack. If the defenders regain possession during the rondo or open play, they must combine or finish in either mini goal. 🙌⚽️

🔥 Supporting the Counter Attack | 49-P10

Experience a dynamic practice centred on winning possession and executing lightning-fast counter-attacks! Two teams start outside the rondo zone, while two defenders aim to win possession in the middle. The remaining teammates engage in shuttle runs, ready to support once possession is won. Players will pass out wide through the gates, setting up a wide player to deliver a cross for a 2 v 1 opportunity in the box. Working together as a pair to win possession, passing weight into space for the winger to receive in stride and speed from attacking players to support the attack are key coaching points in this one!🔥⚽️

⚽️ Defending Against Overloads | 60-P5

Dive into an intense practice developing defensive organisation against attacking overloads. A pass into the striker triggers the action, with a 3 v 2 attacking overload taking place. The objective is for the defenders to work as a unit to win possession and play out into the mini goal, simulating playing out to the CDM. Attackers must use their numerical advantage to penetrate the defensive unit, looking to finish in either of the two mini goals. We have added two progressions to increase the challenge for players and change the dynamic of their attacking and defensive play. 💪⚽️
