Reacting to save cut back


Description

In this session we are focusing on our players ability to save from cut back scenarios. The drill stars with the GK positioned at the near post facing the ball. The coach then passes the ball either on the outside of the pole/cone for a first time finish aimed at going across goal, or the coach passes inside the pole which then creates a 1 v 1 scenario, with the focus on the GK closing down the space to deny a goal. The GK needs to make themselves big and force the attacker into mistakes and mistimed finishes. Each set should consist of 4 - 8 reps, and should be completed at least three times.
