PRESS.

PART 1

The press is not finished when the ball goes long.

You need to travel with the ball and support the next phase.

Use the time while the ball is traveling to get ahead of the 6 and support the second ball.

That is what we call sealing your player.

PART 2

PRESS THE FAR SHOULDER.

When you press the far shoulder, you naturally guide the play wide.

Now the next phase becomes predictable.

CONTROLLED PRESSURE.

You do not always want to win the ball immediately.

Sometimes you steer first and win the next phase.

The more controlled your movement is, the easier it is to keep the correct pressing angle.

PART 3

The best moment to attack is between touches.

When the ball is traveling, it is in a predictable state.

That is when you can afford to be aggressive.

PART 5

STAY CONNECTED.

The press is not individual.

You need to stay connected with your 10 and midfield line.

Distance between players controls whether the team presses together or gets played through.

PART 6

Back pressing is not about running away and closing passing lanes.

It is about compressing the space around the player.

Especially when the player is facing the wrong goal.

Facing the wrong goal is a trigger.
