1 v 1 with Recovering Defender

This week's 1v1 exercises are from an episode of our Coaching Soccer Weekly Podcast.

Recovering Defender

Now the defender passes in front of the attacker who takes his first touch toward goal. The defender attempts to recover to a goalside position.You can increase or decrease the pressure on the attacker by changing the position of the line of attackers. Move them farther back and the defender has a greater chance to recover. Move them farther forward and they'll have more time before the defender can arrive.
