Quick Reactions

Improve strikers' ability to react quickly in front of goal, adjust their body positioning, and finish under pressure.

• Body Adjustment: Encourage quick feet and body adjustments to react to the ball's movement. • Composure Under Pressure: Players must remain calm and make good decisions with limited time. • Accuracy in Finishing: Focus on striking technique—whether a volley, header, or side-footed finish. • Timing of Runs: Strikers should time their movement towards the back post to arrive at the right moment for the header. • Decision Making: Players should assess whether to take a touch or finish first-time based on the ball's speed and height.
