-
Set up a basic 2-3-1 formation, creating 2 triangles
-
Provide:
-
2 hit-up options
-
2 crossover leads
-
2 out-the-back fast-play hit zones (both ends up in a C-shape)
-
-
Maintain constant movement
-
Enables momentum shift when opposition defends well in 1v1 contests
-
Forces opposition defenders to reposition, causing confusion about who to cover and which lead to defend
Drills
-
Scenario play-out
-
Create 6 groups of 1v1s within the 2x triangle formations
-
Use varied players (e.g. mids) to hit designated points in the triangle formation
-
Execute 3 different variations
-
-
Can be applied in defensive transition setups
-
Forwards must anticipate ball movement:
-
Triangle works clockwise and anticlockwise based on play direction
-
