Description

COACHING DETAIL: 

TECHNICALBLOCKING THE LINE OF THE CROSS 

• The full-backs in this practice are encouraged to stopcrosses by blocking the line of the cross. Full-backsshould position themselves to prevent crosses beingplayed into the space behind the two centre-backs. 

BODY SHAPE 

• Central players should be encouraged to defend with anopen body position when the ball is out wide, with theaim of being able to see both the man and ball whencrossing situations occur. 

CLEARANCES 

• When a player is clearing the ball they should use a low risk technique. They should aim to clear the ball away from the box and out of the ‘danger zone’. 

• Defenders should be encouraged to move their feet to avoid over stretching and possibly diverting the ball into their own goal or back into a dangerous area.

ANTICIPATION 

Underpinning all of the defenders’ actions is a highlevel of anticipation. Players should attempt to read‘triggers’ and ‘cues’ as to where the opponent will passnext. They should aim to stay one step ahead of theplayer in possession to win the ball back through tackles,interceptions or making a clearance.
