Description
In this drill our experienced coach from Lusail SC shows you how to train the most frequent situations when it comes to defending for the back four. The focus is on the positional play of the back four when an attacker has the ball. The defenders are trained to move quickly and to position themselves correctly.
The idea is to form a defensive triangle when a central opponent has the ball or a curved line when a winger has the ball.

Variation
You can include a ball in the drill and let one team of four pass to ball to each other while the back four is moving.
