The 5-Minute Football Coach #85

5v5 combination game, Basic skills, Covering for full-backs

Hi there,

I hope you’re well. Here are this week’s 3 coaching tips!

🥅 Practice of the week

A fun game for 5v5 players, using 4 goals:

💡 Idea(s) of the week

Atletico Madrid, coaching professional players how to … clear the ball, really? Well, all skills need practicing, and not dong so could cost quite a few goals.

📖 Tactic of the week

How many times have you seen your full backs push up, only to get punished on the counter? The solution could be as simple as getting your CDM to slot in between the centre backs.

Hope you enjoyed this. Until next time, have a great week!
