Set-up
Work through two corner routines (near-post flick-on, far-post run) and two wide free-kick routines (inswinger to the back post, short set-up for a driven cross). Moreno delivers. Walk through movements first, then run at pace. GKs defend all deliveries.
Coaching points
- Movements must be timed to the run-up, not the kick — start your run late, arrive on time
- Front-post runner (Cruz) disrupts the GK's claim — even if you don't score, you create doubt
- Delivery (Moreno, Pellegrini): pick a landing zone and hit it consistently — accuracy over power
Progressions
- Add a live defensive unit to make the movements real and check timing under opposition
- Work a short corner variant to stretch the defence and create an overload on one side
