After the shot, player “1” checks to player “2”, receives a pass from player “2” and plays it back “one touch”. Player “2” then attacks and shoots at goal. After the attack, player “3” attacks the flank and crosses the ball for player “1” and “2” to score. Both players should perform a cross over, attacking front and back posts.
