Play Beautiful
- Tempo
- Possession with purpose
- Freedom in attack
- 1st touch forward
- Score the next goal
- Counter attack
- Use Width
- Vary attack
- Sustain attack
- End Product
Play Beautiful – this is how we score to win games
• Tempo – do we need to play faster or slow the game down
• Possession with purpose – we possess the ball to create goal scoring opportunities
• Freedom in attack – be creative in the final third, take risks, make something positive happen
• 1st touch forward – when I receive the ball, can I play forward and create an opportunity
• Score the next goal – always pushing for the next goal no matter who scored
• Counter-attack – we won the ball, can we transition quickly to create an opportunity
• Use Width – spread the field, make the opponent have to defend the entire field, create time and space for yourself
• Vary attack – be unpredictable, go around the outside, play through passing lanes, play over the top
• Sustain attack – maintain support and balance to keep them pinned in their half
• End product – get something out of each attack, a corner, a shot, a cross, a goal
