Attacking support in midfield

Coaching Objectives

Players work on passing and running off the ball to receive a return pass which works on first touch, passing, receiving and support play.

It also needs good combination play that results in creating a goal scoring chance and gets your players taking shots at goal.

Challenge levels

• Beginner: No restrictions, focus on maintaining possession and simple passes.
• Intermediate: Limit the number of touches (e.g., 2-touch play) to increase the difficulty.
• Advanced: Add a neutral player who always plays with the team in possession to create numerical superiority.
