Corner Kick - Behind the First Defender
This attacking corner kick is designed to get behind the first defender and cross the ball from the end-line.
One player is placed on the penalty spot. Two players are positioned at each side of the arc. Two players are strategically positioned around the outside of the penalty area to look for any rebounds or loose balls.
A left footed player (the receiver) is positioned on the side of the six yard box. The player moves towards the
kicker.
The defender will follow. The ball is passed to the receiver who drags the ball using the left foot. While shielding the ball he creates space by move up the field. The kicker makes a curved run (to stay in an onside position) then accelerates into the space crated by the receiver. The receiver "back heels" the ball into the space he has created for the kicker to run onto.
The kicker should look to deliver a pass to the feet of one of the five options in the penalty area.
