1v1 → 2v2 Transition Duel

Each instance has 2 BLUE players and 2 RED players. PHASE 1: One BLUE attacker starts with the ball against one RED defender. They play a live 1v1 toward the opponent's mini-goal. PHASE 2 TRIGGER: Immediately when the first 1v1 action ends (goal, ball out, defender clearly regaining possession, or coach-defined completion), the second BLUE and second RED player enter immediately. The exercise becomes 2v2 with no tactical reset. If possession has changed, the new possession team attacks immediately in the opposite direction. The first two players remain active. Two opposite mini-goals, one at each end. No goalkeeper. Continuous short repetitions. Run parallel instances when squad size allows.

Attack aggressively in the initial 1v1. Defender stays balanced and delays. React immediately when second players enter. Scan before transition occurs. Create width quickly in 2v2. Recognise pass vs dribble. Support ball carrier at a useful angle. Defenders communicate and protect centre. Exploit temporary disorganisation after transition. Change mentality instantly after regain/loss.
