The football technique is the set of movements with or without the ball that are implemented during a game, in which the first objective is the possession of the ball, the second the defense and the reconquest of the ball.
The basic technique is composed of 6 fundamentals:
1) domain of the ball
2) kick of the ball
3) guide the ball
4) reception (stop)
5) header
6) throw-in
Individual or applied technical tactics is the practical application of the basic technique with the aim of performing useful and effective movement in the contingent moment.
The individual tactic comprises two phases:
a) phase of possession of the ball
b) phase of not owning the ball
PRINCIPLES OF TECHNIQUE APPLIED IN THE POSSESSION OF THE BALL:
- dissociation
- control and defense of the ball
- passage
- fake and dribbling
I go to the door
PRINCIPLES OF TECHNIQUE APPLIED IN THE PHASE OF NON-POSSESSION OF THE BALL :
- field position
- sprainting
- interception
- contrast
- defense of the door
Whoever is not able to kick the ball, stop it, hit it with his head, etc. cannot be a football player.
To learn the football technique it is necessary to repeat many times a series of technical elements, until you are able to perform them perfectly.
Football tactics can be both collective and individual. The first is a coordinated action between two or more players aimed at achieving a previously determined purpose. Individual tactics are characterized by all those devices and movements by which our performance is useful and economical. The tactic must be carried out independently by each player: everyone is responsible for what he does, taking into account the movements of others.
Technique and tactics are two absolutely indivisible things, in the sense that without the first there cannot be the second.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE IDEAL SOCCER PLAYER
- precise technique;
- high speed of execution;
- repeated displacement speed;
- rapid and varied tactical decision-making capacity.
The task of the football coach is to accustom his players to possess sufficient decision-making autonomy, improving playing times: marking or marking time, beat time, passing time, etc.
In individual tactics, the player must know how to get away from the ball, how to protect the ball, how to pass, receive and drive the ball, how to shoot at goal. In the non-possession phase it is important to take a correct position in the field, mark, anticipate and defend the door.
"Dizionario" of football
Marking : freeing yourself from the light area (area where you can receive the ball)
Defend the ball : put the body to protect the ball
Receiving the ball : it is necessary to go against the ball, for example at the point where the balloons that come from above fall
Pass the ball : this fundamental fast allows me to overcome more opponents than driving the ball, resulting in lower energy consumption and lower risk
Balance : maintaining the possibility of mutual coverage in all circumstances
Game strategy : choice to be implemented in view of the race
Pressing : collective tactic designed to regain the ball
Pressure: individual tactic in order to limit time and space to the opponent's ball holder
Intersections : individual tactical actions without the ball, with position changes by crossing races between two companions. It is mainly used in the attack phase to free up spaces.
Overlaps : he ran behind a mate to whom the ball was transmitted, overcoming it in an attempt to gain space ahead or numerical superiority.
Possession of the ball: action by which we try to free the spaces from the opponents. It is done by trying to make the ball roll over the entire width of the field.
Support (or support): supporting a teammate who is in possession of the ball in order to possess the ball or attack action.
Non-possession phase:
- Position statement: take a position diagonally with respect to the position of the ball; go back to the door
- Man marking: the position is determined by the opponent
- Zone marking: the position depends on the ball
Staggering : players must form triangles between them
Penetration : depth, verticalization. In this case it is necessary to arrive as soon as possible near the opponent's penalty area
Amplitude : create useful spaces and open the "mesh" of the opposing defense
Creation of space : it is dictated by the movements of individuals
Unpredictability : every situation must be made unpredictable
When not in possession of the ball, we must arrange ourselves in such a way as to keep the opponents as free as possible.
Delaying action : intervening to alter the playing times of the opponents, making the opposing team lose time in depth, or limiting the playing times. A delaying action can be implemented through procrastination, pressing or offside.
When not in possession of the ball, the defense must be positioned in such a way as to defend the dangerous area of the court (the one in front of the goal). In this regard it is necessary not to be attracted by the ball, but to defend the spaces in front of our door.
