Die ganze Fußballwelt redet insbesondere vom wunderbaren Tiqui-Taca des FC Barcelona, dem attraktiven und sehr erfolgreichen Flach- und Kombinationspassspiel des FC Bayern München in der Saison 2012-2013 und dem überraschenden „Tödlichen“ Passspiel von Borussia Dortmund. Damit verbindet man in der Regel, dass das „Passspiel“ eine Bedingung für attraktiven und auf Angriff ausgerichteten Fußball darstellt, der viele Beobachter begeistert. Aber was steckt inhaltlich und methodisch hinter diesem „zauberhaften“ Passspiel und wie kann man es wirksam auf dem Trainingsplatz trainieren, üben und lehren? Die Autoren geben mit weit über hundert Spiel- und Übungsformen eine Antwort auf diese Frage. Das sehr facettenreiche und oftmals im Training stiefmütterlich behandelte Passspiel wird für das Training in allen Spielklassen „passgenau“ aufgearbeitet.
The 1990 World Cup in Italy was infamous for generating the lowest-ever goals per game average, and since then, tactical thought has focused heavily and consistently on flexible attacking designed to break down and defeat defending in depth. This book argues that the next tactical revolution belongs to the defending side of the ball, and it features complex, layered defending, blending postures and pressures designed to keep an attacking team off balance throughout the match. There are many quality soccer coaches in the game at every level who feel that defending is more about mentality than tactics, that defending topics do not need to be part of every training session. This book seeks to reestablish balance in tactical planning and in training design by examining every aspect of individual and team defending, making it easy for the coach to incorporate tackling, defending roles, pressing, defending setpieces, and many more topics into team training. With its more than 190 defending drills to train players, it is the complete guide to mastering defending in soccer.
