    Attack From The Flanks

    Uploaded by

    NAYIM OZNAIM
    This soccer training session focuses on attacking from the flanks or wide areas of the field. It involves players spreading out wide to stretch the defense and change angles of attack. Players should consider crossing, cutting inside, or passing from the wide areas. The drills start with a small-sided game and add channels on the flanks for players to use before progressing to less restricted games. The goal is for players to learn how to exploit space opened up behind defenders by attacking from different angles out wide.

    Attack from the flanks

    by Tony Carr in Attacking, Practice plans


     PRINT
     Save to My Activities
    When players take the ball wide and change attacking angles, defences are pulled out of
    shape. This can leave space behind defenders that can be exploited.
    What this session is about
    1.  Spreading play wide.
    2.  Making use of time and space out wide.
    3.  Support.
    4.  Changing the angle of attack.
    What to think about
    Players should consider:
      An early cross or advancing to the touchline.
      Whether to cut inside or go outside if facing a defending player.
      An accurate cross to the far or near post.
      When crossing the ball, should it be struck hard and low or high and dipping?
      Their crossing technique. Do they use the instep, side-foot, chip, etc.?

    What you get your players to do
    Set up an area 30 yards long by 15 yards wide, with a goal at each end.
    Use one team of four players and one team of three plus a neutral player (N) who plays for
    the team in possession, as shown in the top picture.
    Play begins with you or an assistant serving the ball to the team of four. That team plays 5v3
    using the neutral player.
    The defending team must organise itself by closing down any space in a fairly confined area.
    If possession changes hands, the neutral player helps with the other team’s attack.
    To progress, add two 10-yard-wide channels as shown in the middle picture.
    One player from the attacking team is allowed in either channel and can take as many touches
    as needed in that area before passing, cutting inside or crossing the ball.
    No defenders are allowed in the channels and, with a wider area to defend, stopping the
    attackers should become more difficult for them.
    Rotate the neutral player and teams regularly.
    In an overload game, a neutral player helps the team in possession.

    Development
    You can progress the session by adding the following restrictions:
      Wingers can only keep the ball in the channel for a count of five.
      Wide players can only take two touches.
       Allow one defender to go into the channel to pressure the ball, as in the bottom
    picture.
    The team in possession can use the wide channels to stretch the opposition defence.

    Game situation
    Use the same size area to play a five-a-side game. There are no overloads and no neutral
    players.
    The wide channels have no restrictions on them now so anyone can go in them.
    Play normal rules, which include throw-ins and corners, but award extra points if players use
    the channels to create a goal.
    The team of three has possession so it is now 4v4. However, a defender may enter the wide
    channel to challenge for the ball.
