Exercise Objectives:
This Bayern Munich drill emphasizes quick combination passing, quality crossing, and good attacking runs, with the wide midfielder attacking the back post.
Coaching Pointers:
Divide your players into three groups and position one striker and one defender as in the diagram above. The practice begins with player #1 passing the ball to the striker feet. The defender must allow the striker to have one touch before he can tackle. Wide players #3 and #4 make supporting runs out wide. The striker must play the ball out wide to either player #3 or #4. The wide player who received the ball must attack the space quickly and deliver a quality cross into
the box. After playing the ball out wide the striker spins and attacks the space in the box. The opposite wide midfielder must also attack the back post area.
The defender has to try to prevent them from scoring. Rotate roles so everyone has the opportunity to play each position.
Field Preparation:
- Playing area “half field”.
- Balls, cones, bibs, full size goals.
