- Finishing & Scoring
An intense 1v1 drill. Mark an area with poles in the corners and start from the middle of both sidelines. Players work in pairs and start on the coach's command in predetermined directions. On the command the first pair accelerates towards a pole and turns around it to get into the area faster than the opponent. The fastest player gets a ball from the coach and tries to score against the opponent. The pairs start alternately. Adapt the area to the age. Source: Pro-soccerdrills.com.
What the coach should look for
- An explosive start and a good turn around the pole.
- Defend right away if you arrive second.
- Finish at pace.
- Rest between rounds so the intensity holds.
