Technical - Overlap Drill (15 mins)

Setup: 22 x 22 square with 2 small cones as visual aides for the overlapping player.

X makes pass number 1 to Y, who takes first touch towards centre of square to open lane for the overlap. Y makes pass number 2 to Z who plays first time pass (3) to X who has overlapped their initial pass and finishes the sequence by passing to A. Y continues their run across the square to join the B line. Sequence restarts on the other side of the square with A passing to B.

Progression: Put 2 players in the middle and have 2 balls moving around the square, one chasing the other. Switch direction to incorporate left footed passes.

Appropriate first touch (open the lane for the overlap)
Technical Physical

Technical Psychological
Recognise opportunities for wall passes early
Technical Social

Overloads in the wide areas (25 mins)

Setup: Same 22 x 22 square as before with extra cones added.

Reds play 5v3 in the central square. To release the ball from the square they must play a wall pass around either a cone or an opponent. Player that receives the wall pass can then exit the square and passes to either A or B, who represent their fullbacks, and then attack the goal of C or D in a 2v1 situation. Greens defending C and D must pursue ball aggressively and not play as goalkeepers. Play offside in the 2v1 to encourage wall passes and overlaps.

If the green team of 3 get possession of the ball in the square, they can all leave with the ball and attack the goal at A or B in a 3v1, they do NOT need to make a wall pass to leave or pass to their exterior player when they exit.
