The defender plays forwards through the opponent’s defensive lines to create a quick attack. The deepest defenders come together to close off the central channel in the rest defense.

If we play forwards with a long pass the deepest defenders must push up towards the central channel to protect the goal.nRunning diagonally will help them gain a good position...
