Unit 01 - Winger 1v1 Development – Game Ready / Course 01

Unit 01 - Course 01 - First Touch to Break the Defender

Most players lose the ball with their first touch. When you receive wide and the defender steps early, open your body and touch the ball away from pressure. This creates time to attack space. If the defender holds his position, protect the ball and recycle possession.
