2 goals: Vigilances + Transition
Offensive and defensive vigilances in a polarized drill (with orientation), in which we will be conditioning the game bearing in mind that we will then either lose the ball or win it back. With this, we will rise up the level of the offensive and defensive transition.
Understanding of the game
Tactical situation to improve the decision making about when to create a numeric superiority or when to keep being a support in an intermediate distance.
Play it with far players, Beat rival lines
A high demand tactical drill which will require your players a good interpretation of the free spaces, the teammates, the rivals, to play wide or play inside etc.
Winning the ball back and play with the players on the rival´s side.
Once the ball is won back, the first option that all the coaches like is to try to move up the field and to try to benefit from the possibility of a defensive imbalance. Let’s practice it.
Small sided game – Free man
Tactical drill oriented to use, when attacking, the third man and to practice the way of defending it.
Four squares possession
To achieve an appropriate players’ distribution in the free spaces, to switch the game successfully, to choose either checking to the ball or checking away… this drill will make you players think and take decisions.
4 Lanes: Create Superiority 6vs6
In a simple structure applicable to any style of play with a line of 4 in defense + 1 midfielder. You will find a lot of key tactical concepts in this drill: Shiftings, coverages, closing interior passes… and, in order to attack, a wide variety of offensive tactical concepts will be needed.
Rondo with it sides divided in half
A safe support to the player in possession of the ball together with a good passing line option is a fundamental part to achieve a good combinative attacking game.
Coverages, Exchange and Defensive Delay
Individual challenges and basic offensive and defensive micro-associations
Zonal Defense: Move forward or backwards
In every movement of the ball we do, the defensive situation changes. Did the ball go forward or backwards? Is the player on the ball pressed? Does he have options to pass the ball to a free player? These are some of the several decisions that we have to practice.
