Set-up

Full 11v11 at match intensity. No freezes — let it run. Coach observes and notes. Two 15-minute halves with a 5-minute break. Remaining players sub in at the break. Goalkeeper rotation included.

Coaching points

  • We want to see everything we've worked on — press triggers, wide combinations, build-up shape
  • Mistakes are data — don't hide from them, we'll talk about them after
  • Compete. This is the hardest session of the week and we do it properly.

Progressions

  • Second half: team that concedes must restart with a build-up from GK — no long balls
  • Introduce a condition: a goal scored directly from a press-and-win counts double to incentivize the defending principle
