Tactical training for Attacking and defending

This drill serves two purposes 1. Utilising number advantage when attacking and 2. Slowing attack when defense is outnumbered.

Initially the drill uses nine players; a keeper, three defenders, and five attackers.

The five attacking players should spread out in a semi circle.

Starting point:
One attacking player has a ball and the three defenders are positioning themeselves to provide pressure,cover and balance in order to shut down the attack.

Organization:
You can use bibs or jerseys with different colours.

The attackers will at first not attempt to move forward to score but they should pass the ball around them. the defenders try to position themselves by rotating and shifting.

Next step is for the attackers to move and try to score while defenders are trying to slow them down and/or win the ball.

Variations:
Add more attackers to seven while defenders remain the same.

Change the starting point; keeper taking a kick to the centre of the pitch where the attackers are.

In the midst of expectation I can not stop myself from wondering what actually will happen tommorow. I wish to very advanced soccer tactics from the big teams, I wish to hear from TFF that they have collected as much as they expected as gate collection, I wish to see fair officiating of the match. I wish to mature and fair behavior from fans, i wish for a lot good things to happen. But I know one thing for sure: It is possible that I wont see any of my wishes coming true. It is possible to hear from TFF saying that they run deficit from the match collection. We may end up seeing the usual none fair play game from players, players from each team m...
