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: - We will work on staggering and defensive rotations when the line is bypassed on the flanks. - 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.
