It's a nice setup etc but if I'm being honest I'm expecting more technical information on beating the defender.. rather than just 'speed'. Is it a change of speed? What type of speed.. speed 1,2 or 3? I often suggest speed 2 running at the defender and speed 3 to explode away. What should the attacker be looking for before accelerating away..? Which way should the attacker go based on the defenders foot position and momentum etc? Are these videoed and analysed with the players afterwards? Looking to learn and improve.

Fair point, but I expect the limited time and the fact that these are supposed to be professionals who already know those coaching points weren't emphasised more in favour of making the exercise more flowing and dynamic? I also think the coach missed a goal for the team attacking second!

Bro….the whole point of this is to show you a small working example of drills. If you need to be told how quickly you need to tell your players to take someone on,then this might be to advanced for you. I’ve never heard of telling players to run at a pace of 1,2 or 3 like they have gears
