This is played in a 20 by 20 Yard area with a 10 by 10 central square for the single player (8) to combine and break the defensive line of 2 Blue midfielders who look to win the ball.
Our midfield pair, must avoid being split with a through pass, by not leaving large gaps for the opposition to play through. In this combination and finishing practice, 2 attackers must create angles quickly to score in any of the 4 mini goals against 4 defenders.
