Transcript

In a football game, there are three phases for every team attacking when the team has the ball. Defendant when the team doesn't have the ball, both transition in its face getting from defendant to attacking when the team wins the ball or the face getting from attacking to defend them when the team loses the ball. This is a simple view of a football game. It's good to have more than three phases. For example, possession. In this phase, the team is attacking and defending at the same time, attacking us looking for a gap from where it gets in and score defended as open and golden score if they don't have the ball.

By the way, this is dependent with the ball. But for the sake of simplicity, you are going to stick with the three phases attacking all attacks have on the big picture scoring goals. As an as you should give attention to how the team is attacking, like assess, reassess k passes. trances created from which side etc. and distortion of goals scored questions about DSS the process from where by whom and why are more important than how the player scored the goal. The attacking phase relies more on the creativity and the freedom of the players.

They make them unpredictable to the opponent team. important goal of this phase is to create and exploit space. There are so many ways of how to create an exploit that space. For example, Shadow runs, quick passes, switching, play, dribbling and so on. As an analyst should discover and be more precise about how the team is attacking. For example, if you say that the team is attacking by delivering courses, or only answering 5% or even less of the question, there are so many types of courses, low courses, high courses, etc.

From a different place deep or till the corner line to a different place. Be notice pause the first pulse. second pause around the penalty area, different player, striker or the midfielder coming from behind or the other fullback. Most importantly, you should answer to why the team is acting that way? Well, maybe because it's mastering that way of play and has adequate players for it. Maybe because the opening team has difficulties dealing with that way of play, or maybe a mixture of both equations.

If you have to define this face in one word, it would be great activity. Defendant. Everything has a defensive shape. Your first task is to discover it. It isn't static. It could change based on the situation after a substitution after leading after conceding a goal, etc.

The team could defend using a zonal marking system, which is every player has a certain song to defend, or a man marking system which is everybody They're as irresponsible as you to mark a certain player wherever he goes. Normally, teams use a mixture of Zalman and man mark and but with a different intensity. Another thing to make attention towards is the width and the compactness of the lines. This is the width of the lines and this is compactness within the same shape. For example, for two, you can find many degrees of width and compactness, you have to make attention also to the defensive block of the team, low, mid and high. This will tell you a lot about the person style of the team and where it is trying to win the ball and how actively or reactively is the team.

You have to know that the team defense with an object for mind it's almost pushing the opponent team to the situation where they are less effective, is called press mentally on the center pushing the opponent team to play on flanks where they are less effective, or the opposite personnel flanks to play them to play under center. Another example is when the opponent team has shorter attackers, the team could press aggressively high, pushing the openness to play a long ball that will be easily won by the defenders. In the defensive phase, the players are asked to be less creative and more organized and disciplined stick into the system. If you have to define this face in one word, is would be discipline transition in bulk. This phase is the bridge taking the team from the defensive to the attacking phase, or from the attacking to the defensive one.

As anonymous, you should recognize the hybrid players, those who actively participate in both phases, attack and defense. I said actively as there are some players participating more than others and have an important role in that phase. The second thing to do is to discover what they do in this phase, from attack to defense. For example, bracing on a certain player or area. Going back to To fill the gap, cover another player man marking a certain player even when he is without the ball from defense to attack, creating space for another player exploiting the free space plane safely with patience. Looking for a certain player in particular, playing a long or short ball, also have to see the transitions consistency of displayers during the game and how it impacts the game.

If you have to define this face in one word, it would be awarness balance. The goal of the coach is create a balance between all of these phases. Mastering attack isn't an excuse to fail to defend rise up in the 1718 season. He had the perfect attack system, but with a lot of difficulties in the defense system.
