Improve Finishing | Skill Practice (09-P1)
Organisation / Set Up
In this Technical practice, we have 4 passing players on the outside of the 18 yard Box with 3 or 4 balls each. Attacking players begin in the central square, attacking 1 player at a time with the objective for a single attacking player to finish 4 chances against Goalkeeper. Once a player has 4 shots, they move to back of the player line and next player steps up to repeat; progressions below.
Key Coaching Point | 1
- The movement to get on the ball must be sharp - game tempo.
Progressions & Constraints | 1
Players vary delivery from outside, short and long.. high balls or passes on the floor
Key Coaching Question
How can you ensure you work the goalkeeper? Where is GK's strong point?
Progressions & Constraints | 2
After defenders pass the ball into the area, they then press the attacker to put semi-pressure on finishing players.
Key Coaching Point | 2
- Adjust to different types of pressure and identify how your game changes as a result of these passive defenders being introduced.
