The drill starts with the red player making a movement, which the player in the middle looks to find with a pass. The red player controls the ball, goes around the cone near the end line and plays a cut-back pass to the central player, who looks to shoot and score. The queues change after every repetition.
The passer scans before the pass and plays a low, accurate pass with the inside of the foot into the path of the moving player. Receive on the move, with the first touch towards the cone and the end line. Dribbling around the cone with short touches, head up and scanning the goal area from the corner of your eye. Cut-back played low and pulled back diagonally, non-kicking foot behind the ball and follow-through in the direction of the pass. Keep your head up until the moment of contact so you can see where the central player is arriving. In the shot, the timing of the movement should allow you to arrive at the ball on the move; non-kicking foot behind the ball, strike the middle of the ball, preferably first time.
