Objective

Finish low driven crosses from wide positions with one or two touches.

1
A wide player starts on the right flank with the ball, level with the penalty area.
2
A striker positions at the near post; a second attacker arrives at the back post.
3
Wide player drives a low cross across the six-yard box.
4
Attackers attack the ball — near post flicks on or the back post finishes. Rotate roles every 5 crosses.

✓ Near-post runner attacks the cross early — do not wait for it.
✓ Back-post runner times their run to arrive as the ball crosses the face of goal.
✓ Strike through the ball cleanly; do not scoop it.

Develop accurate finishing across the face of goal from a wide angle.

Strike a moving ball cleanly on the volley with accuracy and power.
