Description and Graphics
3 attackers possess the ball with 2 or 3 touches against 1 defender in Zone A. After a few passes one of the 3 attackers makes a deep pass to hit the opposite striker on the other side of the grid.
When it's managed, 2 wing-players move to zone B, the central player stays in position. After the deep pass, the defender runs out and the other sided defender sprints into Zone B
Then the game continues the same way in Zone B.
In case the defender intercepts the ball, he passes it back to one of the attackers.
