Working OPPOSITES with the movement of strikers using Animation teaching SHORT and SHARP runs
If you can teach players to do this consistently then the player on the ball KNOWS that the player is working TWO RUNS to get free; not just off their FIRST run; but OFF THEIR SECOND RUN. That is where they want the ball delivered. I am teaching my team this now. It is a process that takes patience and time to bed into their minds.
Some tips: Striker must try to position out of sight of the defender. If the ball is on the right, then position LEFT of the defender, that way the defender perhaps cannot see the ball AND the striker at the same time. Therefore, sometimes the first run or position can be AWAY from the ball getting on the BLIND SIDE of the marking defender..
Also, in most instances the striker is Turned facing towards goal, the defender is marking facing away from goal. Therefore, the striker has ONE motion to make, the DEFENDER has two motions, first a turn, then recover back.
