Description
Objective: - Pressing the build-up. Constraints: - None. Notes: 1st Option: We force the goalkeeper to play out to the left center-back using the striker; once the pass is made, the striker performs a covering run (shadow cover) to prevent a return pass. The attacking midfielder presses the left center-back, using a covering run to force an inside pass, aiming to intercept between the pivot, striker, and winger. The weak-side winger tucks inside. 2nd Option: We force the goalkeeper to play out to the left center-back using the striker; once the pass is made, the striker performs a covering run to prevent a return pass. The winger presses the left center-back, using a covering run to force an inside pass or a long ball, attacking their dominant foot.
