To develop the goalkeepers' ability to quickly recognise game situations, establish optimal positioning, and react effectively to shots from different angles.
Effective management of the penalty area. High-quality technical execution of aerial actions. A fast and accurate transition into attack immediately after the defensive action
The objective of this session is to improve the goalkeeper’s ability to deal with crosses and high balls inside the penalty area, focusing on timing, positioning, aerial dominance and decision-making after securing possession.
To refine progressive distribution and ensure the goalkeeper acts as a primary playmaker during the initial phases of build up.
To redefine the goalkeeper as the primary playmaker who utilizes pitch zones to clinically manipulate the opponent's defensive geometry.
Build absolute decisiveness when leaving the goal line and 1v1 efficiency. It focuses on reading the speed of the pass behind the defense, precise drop-step footwork, and high-quality distribution under time pressure.
The primary objective is to develop space orientation in a non-traditional setup, enhance reaction speed after ball distribution, and refine cross-catching techniques within a simulated match-like chaos.
Training in match conditions - focused on improving the decision-making process in catching aerial balls - crosses and the transition phase to the offensive or defensive.
Improving the decision-making process in terms of defending the goal vs. defending the space.
Simulating match "difficult" conditions in the training process in the form of a "live" small sided game.
An effective training where both goalkeepers are involved - whether in the defensive or offensive phase of the game.
The correct pass is preceded by the first touch. This is what we will focus on in the first part of the "goalkeeper's game" series.
