Set Up:

Ball #1: Player 1 plays entry pass in to Player 2 who uses the dummy as defender. Player 2 lays off to Player 3. Player 4 makes diagonal run for player 3 to play a final pass between two central dummies. Player 4 finishes after 1 or 2 touches, depending on final pass.

Ball #2: Play begins from left flank. Player 5 plays to Player 6 who sets it back for Player 5 to hit first time ball into the box. Players 2 and 4 vary runs and look to finish the cross.

Ball #3: The Feeder on the end line plays a ball on the ground to the top of the box for Player 3 to finish first time.

Rotations: 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4, 4 to 1. Players 5 and 6 switch with each other.  

Progressions:

-Perform from the other side.

-Vary the combination for Ball #1.

-Vary the services from the flank tor Ball #2 - driven, lofted, on ground, near post/middle/far post

-Add defenders to defend Ball #2.

-Vary the services from the coach for Ball #3 - headers, volleys.

Coaching Points:

1.  Timing the Run - Watch the combination closely and hold your run if extra touches are taken.

2.  Crossing - Hit the cross with pace in order to add power to the finishing header.

3.  Finishing - Concentrate on making solid contact on a ball set back from the end line. Don't overpower it.
