2v2 or 3v3 small-sided game with mini goals and no goalkeeper. When a team loses the ball, they transition immediately to defending: the first defender presses the ball carrier, the second covers, and the third balances.
The team defends together: the first defender delays and shows, the second supports in depth. The shape stays compact.
How many seconds does it take before you defend after losing the ball? Who presses first? Does everyone know? Is anyone providing depth or are you all on the same line?
