Copenhagen 3 Phase Finishing Wide
ADDED TO FAVOURITES
Practice Breakdown:
Number of Players: 6 | Pitch size: 1/3 Pitch
This drill has three continuous unopposed phases to develop coordinated attacking play and finishing across key positions. The winger, attacking midfielder, and centre forward combine with quick passing and movement to create scoring chances. Each phase ensures every player receives the ball in a scoring position and takes a shot, promoting sharp timing and finishing.
In Phase 1, the winger receives wide and passes or cuts back to the centre forward for a controlled finish. Phase 2 focuses on the attacking midfielder, who receives a pass after a quick combination, then drives forward to shoot unopposed. Phase 3 features the centre forward receiving a through ball to finish decisively. This setup lets players focus on technical execution, timing, and composure without defensive pressure.
• Emphasize precise timing of runs to ensure each player receives the ball in an optimal scoring position, maximizing goal-scoring opportunities with intelligent movement and anticipation.
• Stress the importance of accurate, weighted passes between the winger, attacking midfielder, and centre forward to maintain fluid attacking combinations and sharp transitions throughout the drill.
• Encourage players to focus on first-touch control and quick decision-making to enhance the speed and quality of their finishing in all phases, fostering confidence in front of goal.
• Reinforce the need for composure and technique in shooting, reminding players to aim for placement and power to increase scoring effectiveness under match-like conditions.
Add Passive Defenders
Introduce passive defenders to apply light pressure during the finishing phases, encouraging players to improve composure and decision-making under mild defensive challenge. This encourages adapting to pressure while maintaining technical skills.
Focus: Developing technical execution and finishing accuracy while adjusting to increased pressure and game realism.
Increase Pace and Intensity
Increase the tempo of the drill, reducing rest time between phases to simulate match intensity and develop players’ fitness alongside technical skills. This tests stamina and decision-making under fatigue.
Focus: Enhancing quick transitions, stamina, and maintaining finishing quality under fatigue and physical stress.
