Coaching Points
Attacking:
- Ask your players not to be all standing on the same line and to guarantee equilibrium till the end of the combinations
- The one that has the ball must face the defender
- The one that does not have the ball must read the movements of others in order to choose their own movements
- Pay attention to offsides
- Use game combinations for 2 players
Defending:
- Ask players to place themselves between the opponent, the ball and the middle of the goal, getting closer to the rival as the area becomes more dangerous
- Do not fall into the trap
- Raise to its maximum the offside line
- Collaborate as much as possible with forwards to reduce the situation to a 1vs1
- Try to read the intentions of the other player
