With this comprehensive resource, the coach and player will improve their understanding of game tactics, making them stronger and more successful as a coach or player. In today's fast-paced game, when a team loses possession of the ball, it does not wait for its opponent's offensive tactics to begin. Instead, the defensive team limits the spatial aspects of their opponent's game through directed resistance—or, pressure—which immediately limits the offense's options. Beginning with a look at the history of pressing, you will gain background knowledge crucial for understanding the theory behind pressing, which is presented in the second part of the book. Once you understand the why and the how of pressing, you will be able to use the practical techniques and drills presented in the third section. With this book, you, whether a coach or a player, will have all the tools needed to implement a strong pressing tactic in the game, giving you that necessary edge over your opponents.

Download or read book Gegenpressing Counter Pressing Made Simple written by Marcus Dibernardo and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gerard Houllier the former Liverpool, PSG and Lyon Manager said, "The important moment in the game today is when the ball is won or lost." Gegenpressing means to pressure the ball the instant possession is lost, with the intent of launching a quick counter attack when possession is regained. It is different then ordinary pressing where play is always directed into pre-determined pressing areas of the field. Gegenpressing is literally a swarm of intense high-energy players immediately trying to win the ball back after possession is lost, in most cases this is carried out high up the field. The idea behind this type of counter pressing is to force the opposition into hurried decisions and inaccurate passes, coupled with a heavy psychological pressure on the player in possession. This book provides insight into Jurgen Klopps Gegenpressing tactics along with training exercises that teach Gegenpressing.

Download or read book Soccer iQ Presents High Pressure written by Dan Blank and published by SoccerPoet LLC. This book was released on 2017-04-10 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this installment of the Soccer iQ series, college soccer coach and best-selling author, Dan Blank, educates coaches and players on the most effective ways to implement a high-pressure style of team defending. Nearly 80% of goals scored are the result of three or fewer passes, and more than half of all goals scored begin when a team wins possession of the ball in its attacking half of the field. The numbers clearly indicate a statistical advantage to winning the ball in the opponent’s end of the field, and that’s exactly what high pressure is designed to do. High pressure is perhaps the most misunderstood term in soccer’s vocabulary. There are countless coaches who want their teams to play high pressure, but many of them aren’t always quite so sure about what that means. They tend to translate ‘high pressure’ into ‘run around like you stole something until we score.’ They only extract the urgency of which the term implies without much understanding of the nuance that makes high pressure a formidable system of team defense. Those coaches understand that high pressure requires a high work rate, but they don’t understand the tactical savvy that can maximize the output of that work. As a result, their teams feature only the madness but not the method behind successful high pressure. High Pressure provides an easy-to-follow blueprint for coaches and players so they know not only what to do, but why they are doing it. In this book, Dan Blank clarifies the differences between high and low pressure and explains the big picture of high pressure defending. You will learn the roles of each position, the importance of restraining lines, and how to set up pressure funnels to win the ball in the attacking half. Coach Blank also details the telltale cues that signal a team to step up or back off its pressure, and much, much more. High pressure defending requires more than just hard work. It requires organization, communication and an indefatigable team spirit. This book will show you how to create and implement these elements to get a maximum return on your team’s effort.

Download or read book Soccer s Principles of Play written by Peter Prickett and published by Dark River. This book was released on 2021-03-18 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It started with a question, "What are the fundamentals of soccer?" Whilst there are hundreds of books that look into the specific principles of coaches like Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola, and Marco Bielsa, there is no core, distilled text on the key principles of the game. Until now. Join best-selling author and coach - Peter Prickett - as he puts soccer under the microscope and breaks it down into its constituent parts. By addressing the two primary phases - in-possession and out-of-possession - the book examines the five attacking and five defending principles, plus the transitions between each phase, to reveal the underlying heart of the beautiful game. These principles have underpinned coach education for decades and largely been unchallenged. When examining them, other deeper values emerge to support the one true principle - to score. Designed for coaches and soccer fans interested in the theory of soccer, this handbook is a must-read for anyone looking to understand the foundations that soccer is built on.
