WORKING ON THE 1-4-1-4-1 (Pivot, wingers + attacking midfielder + playmaker and striker)

Description

Objective: - Defend in a mid-block using a 1-4-1-4-1 formation. Provocation rule: - Players must beat their opponents in 1v1 situations. Observations: - The pivot acts as a free man between the midfield and defensive lines. - The pivot will provide cover for the central midfielders, allowing the full-backs to handle the wide areas. - The striker applies a pressing shadow towards the flank to avoid doubling up with the centre-back.
