Defending a corner
Mark goal side and try to clear the ball into the space for the attacker to chase. If the defender comes forward for the corner the attacker marks goal side and if the ball is cleared chases the ball. Always remember only 1 player chases the ball at a time, the other mark their own players and cover. Make sure if your player moved follow him and keep tight.
