Weak-Side 2v1 After Switch — Winger and Fullback Attack Early
An attacking exercise where a switch of play releases a winger and fullback against one isolated defender. The pair must attack quickly before the block can travel across.
Save time planning sessions with FUTNIVO.
Organization
Start possession on one side with a central passer. Switch diagonally to the opposite winger, where the winger and fullback attack one defender in a 2v1 channel. The action ends through a mini-goal, dribble gate or delivery toward goal.
Coaching Points
Switch before the far side becomes crowded | Winger's first touch should face forward | Fullback arrives at a different height | Commit the defender before passing | Finish the 2v1 before recovery support arrives
Progressions
- Add a recovering midfielder who joins the duel three seconds after the switch.
Regressions
- Begin with the far-side defender passive for the first touch.
