All tasks, except for some by lines, are systemic; when applying them,
it depends on who is in charge of the group, who demands maximum intensity,
that explains well the why and for what of the task and that accomplishes it

The times are not exposed because that should be at discretion.

Origin of the System


It originates from the 1-4-2-4 system, by moving one of the
forwards to the midfield line, as they cannot count on the
majority of teams with two midfielders with such capability
like the one required for 1-4-2-4 to be effective.

Occupation and development

The most common composition of this system corresponds to that of 1


goalkeeper, 4 defenders, 3 midfielders and 3 forwards.

The defenders are two full-backs, with or without attacking movement.


defensive, depending on the physical-technical-tactical level of the
footballers, and two center backs characterized by their
strength, mastery of aerial play, and speed.

The center of the field is made up of 3 midfielders who play for


in front of the four defenders.

One of the three plays more delayed, providing cover to the


two others, who must generate attacks and arrivals in the opposing area.

The forwards are 3, two of them on the wing and one in the center.

The band members are the genuine extremes, football players of great
speed, excellent dribbling, good passers and with finishing.

They position themselves very close to the sideline to give


amplitude to your team's attack.

The center forward is a tall, strong player, a good striker.


interior of the area, which dominates aerial play and has little mobility.

Advantages of the System

• Increase the effectiveness of defensive play in the central zone to


bring the lines closer together, regarding 1-4-2-4.
• Improve the distribution of efforts in the midfield,
regarding the 1-4-2-4, in addition to distributing more wisely the
positions on the playing field.
• Improve the offensive play by positioning the players in a staggered formation and

allow to exploit the breadth of the game more effectively by


bands.
• Try to take advantage of the quality and talent of the players
offensive actions in dangerous areas of the enemy territory.

Disadvantages of the System


• To achieve defensive success, it is necessary to pull back the players with

the intention to avoid spaces between lines or that they are


overwhelmed by long passes behind the defenders, for which
that the ball recovery usually occurs very close to the
area that is defended.
• In its original conception, the 1-4-3-3 was not intended for
press the opponent near their area.

Currently, its operation is very similar to the 1-4-5-1.


where the difference is established in the position of the
wings, who retreat to the center of the field to
defender (1-4-5-1) and advance to attack (1-4-3-3).

OBJECTIVES
Game speed, avoid high pressure from the opponent, attack from the wing,
good positional play.
DEVELOPMENT
A play area of 35/40 meters is set up across the entire width of the
field. 10 reds play vs 7 blues + the goalkeeper.
Starts with possession of red equipment (I clarify that from the two
central defenders who are outside the playing area, only one
he can get inside when he receives the ball and at the same time to them,
while they are outside, they cannot be pressured) they will try
to make arrangements so that, at the right time, they can provide assistance
what should enter either of the two squares in the bands to
be able to continue with the attack. Once this is achieved, the blues must
avoid the goal and the reds convert it. If blue recovers in any area the
possession, should try to advance with the ball controlled or with a pass and
reception the last line of the red team.

EXERCISE THAT WORKS FOR BOTH 1-4-3-3 SYSTEM AND


FOR 1-4-2-3-1.
OBJECTIVES
Generate mobility, to free the extremes and be able to attack the space
empty. Gain backs, finish with speed, transitions,
concentration. In defense, close spaces, cut passing lines, remove
the ball from the pressure area.
DEVELOPMENT
A play area is set up where 4 defenders and 3
wingers from each team plus 2 support players outside the playing area.
In the corners of the attack, 1 square is marked on each side.
Start with a support pass and the game will be generated, being the
support a passing opportunity to maintain possession of the ball. At the moment
suitable must allow to pass to 1 of the 2 squares, entering the
center forward, without any defender being able to enter the box
a defender. This must center for the arrival of his teammates that
they must finish quickly.
If the play ends in a goal, it starts again; if the goalkeeper stops it
the ball is either deflected or rejected, the play continues, with the red team needing to succeed

give a pass with the supports simulating a pass between the lines and making the
defense–attack transition, in that case the play continues, but with the
passing the ball again to the attacking team.
If the ball is recovered in the playing area, the reds must perform
the aforementioned.
If the ball goes behind the goal during the attack, the play starts
from the goal kick. There is no corner.

VARIANT
1. That the defenders may enter to defend.
2. That a certain number of passes must be given in order to give
the pass to the squares.

OBJECTIVES

In addition to promoting ball circulation in offense, the


offensive zoning and defensive zoning, I also seek a
aspect of my Game Model in the Transition Defense-Attack phase,
to take the ball out of the pressure zone and go out the opposite side
to create spaces (that's why the arches are found
faced diagonally). According to the stimulation and physical adaptation that

discontinuous, or in a broader space and with more continuous time.

DEVELOPMENT
The game starts with one of the two teams in possession of the ball (in this case
the blue) and tries to score a goal in the opposite goal, can use the
supports that are in the bands of your Team. When it occurs the
recovery, marked with a black arrow, you have to exit on the side
contrary to either of the two supports, while the Team that
he lost, he must press quickly and close spaces to prevent this
it happens. It can be made more difficult depending on each person's ideas,
for example, setting limits on passes to be able to score or
also that the supports are movable (for example, when an inmate
give a pass to a support, this one goes in support and the support enters internally, the
that causes more fluidity in the game.

SPACE

defense.
We seek to close internal spaces, press on the bands, and work on the
transition defense-attack by passing to the opposite side and
facing 1 vs 1 anyone of the 3 players positioned outside
from the gaming sector.
The Red team offensively works by moving the ball all over the
wide, using their free players and looking for the pass between lines
to try to connect with the player outside the playing area to
backs of the Blue defense.

another elastic band is placed widthwise forming a horizontal zone,


which in turn, due to the vertical layout on the corners, forms 1
square.
The center defenders play in the horizontal zone free and according to
as the forwards position themselves during the opponent's counterattack,
they can advance to the area of the flyers one at a time.
It tries to be understood through the exercise that on the
bands, if there is numerical equality between our team and the opponent,
superiority must be generated over the center, that is, only the remaining ones are left
two players from the band on the same when there is a solo
opponent, otherwise the winger will try to gain behind by entering into
diagonal.
The game normally unfolds with the conditions before
marked. When there is a recovery, the opponent will try to pass to
the corners of the squares for an external or side flyer
receive the ball in that space, which counts as a goal.
The marked play indicates an attacking move where the
the opposite extreme threatens to enter the central zone but then it
open by gaining the side of the defender to receive freely. It is understood that
it is a move of many that can take place within the game.
