WAVE (Building out from the back against 2 or 3 forwards)

Description

Objective: - Build out from the back against 2 or 3 opposing players. Conditioning rules: - If the opposition presses with 2, only 5 players can enter the marked zone (3 center-backs + 2 full-backs). - If the opposition presses with 3, only 7 players can enter the marked zone (3 center-backs + pivot + 3 defenders). Observations: - If they press with 2 players, our pivot will look to position themselves between the 1st and 2nd line of pressure. - If they press with 3 players, our pivot will drop between the center-back and the full-back, and one of our central midfielders will drop to receive behind the first line of pressure.
