This build up practice develops a teams ability to progress play against an opposition midfield 3. The 2 central defenders (#5+#4) and the centre forward (#9) are playing unopposed whilst the players inside the central grid are opposed.

The team building up must attempt to play the ball forwards and break lines with passes, dribbles and quick combinations before scoring into either of the 2 mini goals. If the 3 pressing reds win possession, they can score into any of the 2 mini goals directly ahead of them, with the 2 defenders (#5+#4) allowed to step in and protect them goals.
