Counter-attack after a corner or free kick

Description

The drill always starts with a corner or free kick. Position the players accordingly. After executing the set piece, the goalkeeper or a defender initiates a counter-attack. The goal is to use a deep-lying player as directly as possible. This player dribbles the ball and attempts to set up another forward with a through ball behind the defense. Players sprint at maximum speed up to the halfway line.
