Description
The follow-up to «Curved runs»: now the player who's just passed makes the run, and runs also work as decoys.
The follow-up to “Curved runs”. Now the runner is the player who has just passed: the pass and follow with L1 + R1 + X. And the run as a decoy, to drag the defender away and find a third team-mate even when the runner never gets the ball.
What you will learn
- The curved pass and go with L1 + R1 + X.
- Shield the ball and give it back only when the runner is in useful space.
- The decoy run, to move the defender and find the third man.
- Change where the pass comes from so the run is harder to read.
- The difference from the directed run, plus a practice routine with three situations.
Who it is for
For players who've mastered the curved run and want more options.
When to use it
In slow attacks down the wing and when your opponent tracks every run.
