  • In this form you play 2 attacker vs 3 defender with goalkeeper.
  • The goal of the task is to have the goalkeeper play the ball into one of the 3 defenders.
  • The ball starts with the 2 attackers.
  • They play the ball equally deep to the goalkeeper to have a realistic start.
    • From then on it starts.
  • The goalkeeper can catch the ball, take it etc.
  • The three defenders must constantly be on the ball.
  • The goalkeeper tries to get the ball to one of the three defenders.
    • From then on you get a 3 vs 2 situation.
  • The attackers' task is to block as early as possible to make the build-up by the defenders difficult.
  • With more than 6 players, you could also have an attacker and a defender come in when the defenders are played in.
    • Then it becomes 4 vs 3.

Organization

  • Four players red + goalkeeper at a goal
  • Four players blue + goalkeeper at a goal
  • Trainer stands at the side of the field (with the balls)
Situation 1

  • Trainer plays the ball to player 1 of team red
  • Player 1 of team red and player 1 of team blue fight a 1 vs. 1 duel
Situation 2

  • In this situation red has scored, that means that a blue player comes in.
  • If blue steals the ball and scores, then a red player is added.
  • In this case you create a 2 on 1 situation
Situation 3

  • Blue managed to score in the previous situation, which means that a red player joins...
  • You thereby create a 2 vs. 2 situation
Points of attention and rules

  • Watch the numbers, 4 against 1 is no fun. Keep it challenging and keep the numbers at +1 at the most
  • When the ball goes out, it starts with the trainer. The ball then goes to the person who is entitled to it.
  • Next to it a player comes in (for a quick run through)
  • Decide, as trainer, of which color a player must be added: logically this would be the team with the ball (but let it depend on the numbers).
  • Continue to play until a 4 vs 4 situation has arisen.
Coach accents

  • Passing to the front
  • Depth in the game (think deep, run deep and play deep)
  • Speed up your attack
  • Make the field big (width and depth)
  • Play a man off more by letting the defender choose

drawing Long pass drill
Explanation:
  • The 2 slanting continuous lines are 2 mini goals
  • The dotted line is the 'middle line' to get the right of attack.
  • 4 to 8 players, in 2 teams or each player for himself
  • Team/player with most points after a certain time/ number of points wins
Aim of the game:
  • Blue plays the ball in to red
  • Red has to dribble over the centre line to score in 1 of the 2 goals
    • If he scores, he gets a point
    • If blue takes the ball away, he can also score and thus gets a point
  • When a point is scored or the ball is out both players join the other row and the next 1v1 starts.
Important:
  • This exercise is about making an action.
  • Therefore choose a certain move that the attackers can use to get past the defender
    • If the attacker does this and scores from it: 2 points.
  • The defender can never get more than 1 point when he scores.
  • The attacker only gets 2 points if he passes the defender with this move
    • if he already passed and then makes the move, he gets only 1 point
Variations:
Movements which can be trained are:
  • Single scissors
  • Double scissors
  • Step over
  • Zidane-turn
  • Elastico/akka
  • Reverse elastico/akka
  • Iniesta/La croqueta
  • Ball roll + Ronaldo chop
  • Drag 'n roll
Focus points:
  • Attacker's take: at least forward for speed in the attack
    • Preferably sideways so that he is already running towards one goal and also creates space near the other goal
  • Make sure that the defender applies pressure immediately after passing, so that the attacker has to react quickly
drawing 1v1, focus on action
Explanation:
  • Square is the playing field, marked out with pawns
  • Horizontal dotted lines represent mini-gallies
  • 2 teams of 3 to 4 players: set out several squares next to each other (also possible with 2 per team, but it is more fun with 2 or 4)
  • Set out 4 gates of pawns
  • Keep the playing field small so that you can act quickly.
Aim of the game:
  • Blue plays a tight ball to red
  • Red has to dribble through at least 2 gates and can score in 1 of the 2 goals.
  • The ball can be taken away so that blue can also score
  • When the ball is out both players join the back of the other row and the next 1v1 starts
Variations:
  • When blue takes the ball he must dribble through at least 1 gate to be allowed to score
    • same if ball is taken away again
  • Red must dribble through 3 or even all 4 gates
  • In 2 teams, the team that scores the most, wins.
    • Make sure teammates do not bump into each other
  • Everyone for himself
    • The one with the most points after a certain time or with a certain number of points wins
Focus points:
  • Good and tight 1st pass
  • Good take off from red:
    • forwards or sideways
    • But do not deadlock it because you need to act quickly
  • The man who passes the ball must apply pressure immediately so that this happens
  • The ball must always be in motion and may not lie still
drawing 1v1 with gates
  • Place pawns as shown on the picture.
  • Two next to each other for speed
