🔭Take your eyes off the ball

I really appreciate teams that have thought about what they want to do, when they get free shots in the corners. You will get a lot of them during games, so it makes a lot of sense to know what to do.

It definitely does not have to be set plays, it can be as simple as knowing what space to attack, or what could open up, depending on what happens after the ball is played.

Today we are looking at a certain set play from a free shot in the corner, that we saw Czechia try a couple of times during the WFC in Ostrava.

I would like to focus on something that is often lost in the mix, when we discuss free shots – and that is what factors players need to consider, once a set play is underway. Check out the video below, to see where the Czech players should have been looking. 👇
