Let move me, pleasee
Just saying, 3 on 4 situation (3 attacker, 4 defenders) that turn into a 1 on the goalie. Something to take into account.
As a reminder, Follow this steps:
- Take a look at the video:
- Read and think about the analysis.
- Match the analysis and the video. Min 5:55
Marc Grau (Barça N24) stops the game at 4. Pushing the defence down. Thanks to the brief stop, Barça attackers have some time to relocate around the area, where spoiler, everything is going to happen.
Ignacio Alabart (Barça N3) cuts into the opposite side Grau is. Sergi Llorca (Barça N44) gets the ball, and again stops the game behind the cage. Grau cuts into the top corner, same side. Now we can see a triangle shape for the Barça players. At this time is when the 4th defender gets in.
As soon as Grau gets a bit of space from the defender and starts skating towards the back of the cage, Llorca passes back and they swap positions. This move looks dumb but it is actually smart. This move makes the defence chase the attacker, which means that they are reacting, hence they have to make a decision. As much a defender needs to move and decide more likely they are to stop marking properly and being late.
Saying this, Grau stops the game again. While Llorca starts looking for Alabart. This is the key for this kind of play. The defenders on these two have to give the back to the ball. Which it is never desirable.
