Soccer coaching tips to get attackers splitting defences
Use these soccer coaching tips to get your attack players splitting defences with a pass.
Soccer coaching tips to create space with simple passing
- An attacker who is being marked, should get used to dropping and passing the ball back. This draws the enemy defense out and creates space in front of the goal they are defending.
- Notice that by simply checking back, the marked attacker draws out the entire defensive line.
- The midfielder plays a one-two with the attacker who turns and runs into the box allowing the midfielder to play a ball through or over the advancing defender.
