8v8+1 Sustained Attacked

To improve players' ability to maintain possession, counter-press effectively, and create scoring opportunities during sustained attacks.

Build-Up Play: • Ensure players maintain composure and look to create passing options. • Encourage midfielders to find space & defenders to provide recycle options. Counter-Pressing: • React immediately to losing possession - go to the ball & block passing lanes. • Work as a unit to regain possession quickly. Exploiting Space: • Attackers make timed runs into space created by the defensive gaps. • Wide players should stretch the play to create opportunities centrally. Transition Speed: • Encourage transitions between attack & defence to keep the opposition under pressure. • When possession is regained, focus on playing forward with purpose & speed.
