The player in the middle of the pitch gives a square pass to the RM, then moves on to the green cone. Rm dribbles with the ball, before passing inside to IR. IR gives a pass between the red cones for RM to run on. Rm then frives around the white cones, before giving a cross to the top of the D, for IR to take a first time shot at goal.
High intensity with strong passes. Right foot receiving. Progression - add in rebound board, or defender, and 3D skill for RM before the white cones.
