It's really important for players to be able to get open to receive a pass or find space in which they can shoot. One of the most effective ways of getting open is by using the V-Cut. The v-cut is a simple move but when used effectively can successfully wrong foot even the most alert of defenders and give players more time and space in which to receive the ball.
Basically this move is a V shaped run, with the intention of losing a marker and to Cut through the opposition's defence.
