·       Ball played from the goalkeeper to the central defender to try develop play.

·       Central defender finds space between the opponent to combination pass by passing with movement to the central midfielder.

·       The players have to be in the right position and right body shape to receive the ball, this is player body orientation.

·       The players are creating a combination pass by the midfielders and strikers between the 18 yard box and middle of the pitch and the 2 wings close in as well, finding space to pass the ball behind the blue defenders to do a killing pass short or long ball to score the goal.

Blue team

·       When the red team has scored a goal or the ball goes out of play, the blue team starts from the goalkeeper and pass the ball to the right defender,

·       The right defender start to develop their play by passing combinations, understanding the play with coordination and focus on their passing  by accurate passing and creating space.
Without accurate passing we lose the ball and we will transition from attacking to defending.

·       The players must understand for them to be able to coordinate between each other.
